The official road is open, two jade horses, snow-white, strong and powerful, galloping on the road, the sound of horses' hooves, dusty.

The young man in plain clothes and the girl in Tsing Yi rode side by side, holding the reins in their hands and in high spirits. The mountains are high and the water is far away, and the wind is light and the clouds are light.

Juvenile line.

During the three-day trip, they once again traveled thousands of miles to the vast mountains in the north of Jinzhou. It is sparsely populated, with mountains and ancient trees. The sometimes resounding sound of the neighing of demon beasts is even more desolate.

"This is the Hengbei Mountain, which is rarely populated, and it is an empty mountain. Crossing here, we will reach the border of Yangzhou, let's be careful, there may be powerful monsters or bandits here. Luo Yi's expression was slightly condensed and reminded.

"Yokohoda Mountain. Gu Li lowered the horse quickly, and glanced at both sides of the official road, there were huge hugging trees, quiet and dark, and it was indeed a little crazy.

After walking for more than an hour, they walked out of the gloomy woods, and as far as the eye could see, there were mountains everywhere, and the mountains were barren, and even the flowers and trees were very few. It was very desolate.

"Nanyue has a hot and humid climate, and the plants are flourishing, so why don't flowers and plants grow in this Hengbei Mountain. Luo Yi was a little puzzled. When Gu Li saw such a scene, he remembered that the hundreds of miles in the area after the immortal tribulation of the Moon Mountain Range had turned into scorched earth, and not a single inch of grass was born, which was even more dead and silent than here.

"It's okay, let's continue walking along the official road, and it shouldn't be long before we leave here and arrive in Yangzhou. Gu Li replied lightly.

"Hmm. Luo Yi nodded and continued to walk, but both of them reduced the speed of the jade horse to about half of the previous speed. The louder the horses' hooves were so as not to cause any trouble, so they had to restrain their speed.

"Whew!"

A wolf howl suddenly resounded in a mountain in front of it, and then many wolf howls sounded one after another, at this moment the sky is already dusk, the wolf howls in the wilderness, the sun hangs in the west mountain, but it is a little weird.

Gu Li and the two glanced at each other, their faces quite solemn. They had already felt a demonic aura that was constantly coming. It should be the aura emanating from the group of demon wolves in front of you. It was the two jade photos, both of which felt something and let out a low neigh.

If it weren't for Gu Liluoyi's mount, it was a jade horse, which had the blood of a great demon, and ordinary mortal horses were afraid that they would be frightened at the moment and would not dare to move forward.

"It's getting dark soon, and the wolves are out to hunt and kill, so we have to hurry up and get out of the mountains of Hengbei. Luo Yi said. Although with the combat strength of the two of them at this time, they are not afraid of ordinary demon wolves, but in the face of wolves, there is still no chance of winning. If they are chased by wolves smelling their breath, they will inevitably be in danger again.

"Good. ”

Gu Li also knew the stakes and sped up, and Yuzhao rushed along the official road again.

However, they were not lucky in the end, and were stopped by the wolves. Countless black wolves had dark green eyes and fierce eyes, staring at them and licking their tongues, as if they were staring at a plate of delicious food. The wolf at the front is particularly strong, with a huge body, long hair fluttering, and extremely demonic energy.

"Most of these wolves are cultivators in the first and second realms, but this wolf king has also reached the third realm in cultivation. We are alone, not their opponents. Gu Li's eyes were solemn, staring at the dozens of black wolves in front of him, and analyzed.

Luo Yi naturally saw that there were so many wolves, and they would be consumed to death, and it would not work at all to open up the way forward, and the only way to escape was now.

"Whew!"

At this moment, the wolf king raised his head again and howled, and took the lead in rushing over, and then those wolves attacked and killed, and their dark green eyes were fierce and terrifying.

"Let's go!"

In a hurry, Gu Li shouted, turned around and ran towards the road he came, Luo Yi hurriedly followed, but the wolves were also chasing after him, even Yuzhao Ma couldn't get rid of it. In this Hengbei Mountain, the wolves can be called kings, there are almost no opponents, and the prey they are eyeing has never missed.

"What to do!" Seeing that the wolf king of the three realms was getting closer and closer, Luo Yi exclaimed, if this continues, sooner or later they will have to be caught up by the wolf king and fall into the siege of the wolves.

"Let's go, let's go up the mountain!" Gu Li turned the horse's head, didn't care so much, and rode the horse into the mountain forest on the left, Luo Yi saw this, and hurriedly followed, his mind calmed down for a moment, thinking that maybe they could occupy a favorable position in the mountains, and they could still fight with the wolves. And returning along the official road, there is no hope at all.

In the mountains, the mountain road is tortuous, the mountains and rocks are everywhere, and when twilight falls, a pair of young girls ride white jade horses, constantly going deep into it, chasing dozens of wolves behind them. And at this moment, the jade Zhao horse, the whole body is crystal clear, and the snow-white hair emits white light, illuminating the place three feet away from the body, like a bright lamp. Running like a mountain road is still walking like flying, which is no different from a flat road.

At this time, they show the true meaning of the word "Yuzhao". Gu Li and the others were a little lucky, and secretly praised that it was indeed Baojun.

I don't know when I ran, the wolves behind me actually left, Gu Li and the others looked behind them, puzzled, why is this? But the next moment, they only felt the wind behind them, which frightened them to turn around suddenly.

It's just that there is nothing behind him, only the yin wind gusting, and the yin qi is pressing.

"Why is this place so gloomy, the yin qi is too heavy. "Feel it carefully, Gu Li's masculine body is extremely sensitive to this place.

"We're afraid we're in a more dangerous place. Luo Yi smiled bitterly, the wolves retreated, and the demonic qi disappeared, but at this moment, such a rich and unusual yin qi appeared, it was definitely in some danger.

"What can I do then?" Gu Li also felt helpless and smiled bitterly. At this moment, they didn't dare to go out, the wolves were afraid that they were waiting for them outside, but they didn't dare to go forward anymore, the yin qi ahead was too heavy.

"Gu Li, do you smell a fragrance?" Luo Yi suddenly raised his head at this moment and smelled the air everywhere, and asked another question, Gu Li also sniffed when he saw this.

After a while, the two looked at each other, their eyes were surprised, and they said in unison: "This is hot pot?!"

That's right, the fragrance that fills the air at the moment is the smell of hot pot! And the source of this smell is the place where the yin qi is too heavy in front of it.

"Is there someone here?" Gu Li was shocked, but what kind of person would live in such a place and eat hot pot? Could it be a ghost? Thinking of this, his back was cold.

"Such a place where yin qi is extremely heavy and yin and yang is out of balance, how can a normal person live here, I think it may be a monk who practices yin qi gong. It may even be a ghost cultivator. Luo Yi Ning said, there is a hot pot smell here, so there are definitely people.

"No, ghost cultivator!" Gu Li was taken aback when he heard this, they were so betrayed today? Just escaped from the pursuit of the wolves, and met evil cultivators such as Ghost Xiuna? Those extremely vicious people practiced evil arts, and even ate people, which was even more terrifying than the wolves.

"I'm not sure, let's go in and have a look?" Luo Yi weakly proposed, to be honest, she was also scared at the moment. Ghost cultivation is too evil, the world does not tolerate it, it is no different from demons, if there is really one, they will be in trouble.

After all, even the wolves stopped when they arrived here, and they did not dare to invade, which shows that they are very afraid of this place.

"Well, you're so bold. Gu Li sweated. Luo Yiqiao's face was slightly red, and after glancing at Gu Li, she turned her head away, "Anyway, we are in a dilemma now, it is better to go in and take a look, I can't say that it is not a ghost cultivation, most of the evil cultivators in the world are practicing the method of extreme yin, liking yin and avoiding yang, and they should not eat hot pot and other yang food that is easy to get angry." ”

Gu Li nodded when he heard this, "What you said makes sense, then let's go and take a look, anyway, we can't get out now, if you encounter a situation, come back quickly, and wait for tomorrow to hurry." ”

Then, they dismounted and led the two horses to rely on each other and walked tentatively, the yin qi became heavier and heavier, and the two of them had to use the true qi in their bodies to resist, otherwise they would be frozen by the yin qi. It is that the two jade horses are both running the demonic energy in their bodies to resist the cold.

Everything in the world is divided into yin and yang, yin and yang are coordinated and all things are born, if the principle of yin and yang is broken, it will be difficult for all creatures to survive. If you are in the land of extreme yin, you will be frozen to death by the cold air, and if you are in the land of extreme yang, you will be burned to death by yang fire. Unless they have different tendencies towards yin and yang or have an extremely high cultivation level, they are enough to ignore it.

For Gu Li, he has lived under the phoenix plane tree in Yunshen since he was a child, and has absorbed a lot of flame power, and he has been close to the yang fire qi since he was a child, but he doesn't like this kind of extreme yin qi the most. Fortunately, the mountain and river marks in his body could resist the invasion of this yin qi into his body and damage his meridians.

As for Luo Yi, it is still very effective in resisting these yin qi with the Dao Lotus Platform in his body, which is much stronger than Gu Li.

"Are you okay?" Luo Yi asked with concern, she naturally knew that this yin qi was powerful, Gu Li's cultivation was lower than her, I was afraid it would be difficult to resist. saw the young man smile, "It's okay, the mountain and river seal has an effect on him." ”

"That's good. You can't say it's really a treasure. Luo Yi relaxed when he heard this.

A moment later, they were shocked to find that not far ahead, in the twilight, there was a bright fire. Seeing this scene, the two were even more convinced that it was not a ghost cultivator living there.

They continued to move forward, approaching the land of fire, and found that there was a courtyard here, silent, but the smell of hot pot and the light of the fire emanated from it.

Approaching the courtyard, they found that the mansion was very dilapidated, and even the main entrance had a large cobweb, which did not look like it was inhabited at all. And above the main entrance, there is a dilapidated plaque with only two words on it: Liao Zhai.

"Such a dilapidated Zhaizi is located in the depths of the Hengbei Mountains, so remote, how can it be inhabited?" Luo Yi caught the light of the jade horse and saw it clearly.

"Who knows, but this Zhaizi is by no means a permanent residence, maybe it is also some kind of outsider, let's go in and have a look. At this moment, Gu Li was emboldened, and pushed open the door, only to see that the two doors fell directly to the ground, raising a puff of dust.

The two looked at it, and saw that in the huge courtyard, it was desolate and lifeless, but there was a man in a black Taoist robe, sitting cross-legged in the middle of the courtyard, setting up a large pot to cook hot pot and eat.

Hearing the voice, the man stood up and looked, drew a sword, and looked behind him with a wary look. When Gu Li and the others saw the man's face, they both opened their mouths in surprise.

This person turned out to be a teenager, and he looked like he was two or three years older than Gu Li at most. And it's a young Taoist priest dressed up. Where did this young man come from?

For a while, the three of them looked at each other, which was quite funny.

"Who are you, how can you eat hot pot in such a place?" Gu Li was the first to ask, his expression was also vigilant.

Seeing that the two of them had no malicious intent, the young Taoist priest smiled softly, with a hint of unruliness or rebelliousness in his eyes, looked at the two of them, and replied to Gu Li with a light smile, "Xiaodao Mu Shen, who are the two of you? How could you come to such a place to disturb Xiaodao and eat hot pot?"

This answer is interesting.

Gu Li and Luo Yi saw that this person was not a ghost cultivator, but a small Taoist priest, and he had no ill will towards them, so they relaxed, glanced at each other, and walked over.

"I opened it when I smelled this fragrance. ”

"In Xia Luoyi!" Luo Yi also used a "below" to call himself.

"I see, I didn't expect the hot pot made by Xiaodao to be so attractive. There are people from empty mountains. Mu Shen smiled at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, turned around and sat down, "Meeting is fate, not to mention that it is still this deep mountain and wild forest, dry and lonely old fast, why don't you two come and taste the craftsmanship of Xiaodao?"
