As soon as they arrived at Taniguchi, the two of them slowed down at the same time.

Not far ahead, a dazzling fire could be seen, as well as several dark shadows imprinted on the stone wall.

Xue Li sniffed the cool breeze, "Smelling the breath, it should be...... Mortal. ”

Ye Yao nodded, "Anyway, it's not an immortal family, and there is no half of immortal Ze." ”

For the sake of prudence, she still sacrificed the water beads.

There is no special reaction to draw water beads...... The other party is neither a demon nor a demon.

The two walked slowly into the valley, and not far away they saw a fire lit in the corner and sheltered from the wind.

The flames crackled, and five people sat on one side of the stone wall.

"Excuse me, several, we're passing through, and want to rest here for the night, and borrow your campfire to keep warm. Ye Yao stepped forward to salute and said politely.

When I looked up, I found a familiar face in it.

"Dao Chief!" Xue Li preemptively called.

Sitting in the middle of the group, Xuan Zhenzi, who was dressed in a white robe and had fairy wind bones, also recognized them, shook the dust and smiled: "Ye Yao Xiaoyou, squeaky young man, it turned out to be the two of you?"

With that, he got up and asked them to sit down.

"Bang-"

The young man on the far edge retracted his sword and sheathed it.

The man on the other side also put down the Ugin Great Ring Knife.

Ye Yao stuck out her tongue at Xueli, they were so light-hearted, it turned out that they had already been discovered.

"Dao Chief, I changed my name. Now it's called Snow Away! Snow Leaves, Away from Home. ”

As soon as he sat down, Xue Li was in a hurry to say the name.

Xuan Zhenzi laughed, "Well changed." That's the name of my daughter's family!"

He looked at Ye Yao and said happily: "Ye Yao, Xue Li, 'The snow is flying at night, and the young man is far away without injury'." You sisters, are you still wandering outside?"

Although he is not familiar with the Xuanzhen Dao Elder, the elder asks, even if it is only the elder in appearance...... I asked.

As a junior of the "human race", Ye Yao still replied obediently: "Thank you for worrying, the younger generation and the younger sister have been wandering outside, catching demons and hunting spirits, hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and they don't dare to get tired." ”

"It seems that you have also achieved some success in cultivation! It's been more than ten years, and your appearance hasn't changed at all. Xuan Zhenzi nodded, stroked his long beard and said to the little Taoist boy beside him: "Lian Sheng, have you seen it? These two sisters have been working diligently to catch demons and have accumulated a lot of merits before they have cultivated the art of rejuvenating the face. If you are diligent, you will be able to achieve this. ”

When Dao Tong Liansheng heard this, his shoulders shook and he almost turned over. "Division...... Master...... , the disciple doesn't want to practice the art of residing in the face, he doesn't want to be like this forever!"

He was only in his teens, his size was only up to the master's chest at most, and he was wearing a smaller-sized robe, with a neckline and wide sleeves that were still too big.

Glancing at his arms, legs and feet with a bitter face, he quickly shuddered and stepped back.

"Pss

Xue Li couldn't help but smile, "Dao Chief, how old is your little apprentice, if you practice the rejuvenation technique, you won't be tall." ”

As a teacher, he will casually educate his disciples when he finds an opportunity, but as for whether it is suitable or not, Xuan Zhenzi doesn't care.

He added a few sticks of firewood to the fire, and asked Ye Yao in the voice of an elder, "How is the result of building the foundation?"

Ye Yao struck a stirring spirit and replied cautiously, "Hurry up...... It's almost there. ”

Xuan Zhenzi sighed, "After saving up 'merits' for so many years, and changing a lot of spiritual power, it's still a bit strange that your sisters' cultivation has not been able to improve......! Bow down to the poor way, and let the poor way guide you. ”

"No!"

"Don't-"

As if they were burned, the two of them hurriedly refused.

Afraid that the Taoist would not be able to save face, Ye Yao hurriedly explained: "Our sisters hunt demons to protect the people of Limin. The spiritual power obtained was used for foolish purposes, and he didn't cultivate properly. It's common to fail to improve, and I don't really care about it. ”

"Oh, that's right. Xuan Zhenzi looked sorry.

Suddenly remembering something, he leaned over and said, "There are still three months before the exchange of spiritual power, why are you here so early?"

Under his concerned gaze, Ye Yao smiled, and there was a burst of warmth in her heart.

Back then, she and Xue Li left Kunlun Xu, and went to the Netherworld to register as a "Purifier", and the first time they went down to the Demon Abyss was the way that the Xuanzhen Dao Master showed them.

He also regarded them as the juniors of the Tao, and talked to them all the way about the rules of "accumulating merits" and the tricks of catching demons and spirits in the world.

There is a rigid rule in the "Merit Station" - the day of registration is the day of exchange for "merit", so they happen to be on the same day as the Taoist.

The Taoist chief is too old to sleep, and they hope to meet as few pure people as possible, so they appear outside the post gate early in the morning every time, and they are more punctual than the appointment, and they become "acquaintances" after a few times.

The pure ones kill heavily, and the masters walk alone.

Over the years, among so many people I have met, only Xuan Zhendao has a warm heart.

Since he asked, Ye Yao couldn't avoid it, "There is a Taoist friend who wants to go to the 'Merit Station' to register but doesn't know the way, so we came with him." ”

"Huh?"

Gen Zhenzi's eyes narrowed.

There are other people who come together, and it's a little strange that they are not together late at night.

Realizing that he had slipped his mouth, Ye Yao hurriedly explained: "He was in a bit of a hurry, so he left first." Did you know...... The two of us haven't practiced this way yet. ”

When she lied, she was a little weak-hearted, but she was ashamed to say it in the eyes of Xuan Zhenzi.

After so many years of practice, these two children can't even fly, it's really ...... Shame on people, too!

"I see. ”

Xuan Zhenzi sighed and said earnestly, "You still have to ...... We must not be complacent about catching a few demons or evil spirits casually, but we must have a lofty goal...... For example, subduing demons!"

The cold wind choked Xue Li and coughed.

Thinking that the target he said was too scary, Xuan Zhenzi pointed his finger and said: "Or set a small target first and catch one of it - a little demon beast!"

"Ahem...... cough ......" Ye Yao coughed too.

"What's the matter? This little body can't stand the encouragement?!" Xuan Zhenzi blew his beard and glared.

After years of not seeing each other, he has become more and more a good teacher.

It's good to have a teacher, and someone will guide you when you encounter difficulties; it's annoying to have a teacher, and it's inspirational all day long!

Ye Yao took a breath and hurriedly changed the topic: "There are still three months, why are you here." ”

Xuan Zhenzi glanced left and right, and said deliberately calmly: "I made an appointment with a few friends to meet here." ”

"Date a friend?" Xue Li raised an eyebrow.

Ye Yao also stared at him with wide eyes.

This time, it's their turn to be suspicious!

These people in front of them are all mortals, and the territory of Kyushu in the world is vast, so where to make friends, they have to go to the demon world to talk.

They are full of questions, and Xuan Zhenzi knows it, but he doesn't plan to respond at all.

He waved his hand perfunctorily, "Let's all go to sleep! ”
