The golden light swept over the heads of Hu Yan and the others, heading straight south.

Originally, Hu Yan wanted to follow up to see what kind of great cultivator was crossing the tribulation, but the speed of the golden light flying was too fast, and in a blink of an eye, it disappeared into the sky and disappeared without a trace, and Hu Yan, who was still injured on his body, had to give up, and under Zhuang Bai's urging, he had to lie down again, but it was difficult to sleep for a while.

Coming down from Qingyuan Palace, it was only a few days, but what happened was more and more unbelievable, although Hu Yan was a cultivator who had achieved qi cultivation, he was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child after all. Suddenly exposed to so many unacceptable things, no matter how strong his mind is, he can't help but hesitate a little.

The path of cultivation is difficult to ascend to the sky. Hu Yan understood the truth, so he had been prepared for the difficulties on the way to practice, but what he saw and heard along the way, the weaknesses of human nature were displayed in front of his eyes at a glance.

Some people even endure the cruelty of their children in order to obtain powerful exercises, and some people do not hesitate to kill their fellow disciples in order to obtain spiritual treasures. In comparison, Xiao Hei's loyalty, the righteousness of the tree demon, and the filial piety of Hei Jiao are much more heartwarming. Sometimes Hu Yan even has an illusion that people are inferior to demons.

However, Hu Yan also understands that there are good and bad people, and there are good and bad demons, and you can't kill a boatload of people with one rod. And I can only keep a Dao heart, so that I can go further on this path of cultivation. That's all.

In a trance, the sky was already white.

Looking at the morning glow like a fiery sky, Hu Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly. I was going to have a good night's rest, but instead of resting, I got injured and couldn't sleep all night. Hu Yan had no choice but to take advantage of the fact that it was still early to meditate before everyone woke up.

Although the early morning masterpiece is not as effective as the time when the masterpiece comes, it is better than nothing. At least a little bit of rejuvenation.

After making up his mind, Hu Yan made up his mind.

After nine small weeks, six degrees and six days of great Zhoutian, Hu Yan once again entered the realm of inaction, and his divine consciousness once again broke into the blank chaotic world.

All along, Hu Yan has been a little dazed and strange about this blank chaotic world, this place is empty and empty, and the place that can be touched by divine consciousness is an endless white. Although he didn't understand the mystery, he could feel that every time his divine consciousness entered this blank chaotic space, it would improve.

Moreover, he found that the chaotic space seemed to be unusually vast, and what he could detect was only the tip of the iceberg, perhaps if he wanted to explore the entire chaotic space, he needed extremely high behavior.

Hu Yan was not in a hurry to this, and after letting his divine consciousness wander around the range that could be detected, he withdrew his divine consciousness into the spiritual platform.

When I woke up from my meditation, the sun was already rising in the sky, and everyone was packing up and cooking breakfast.

"Little brother, how do you feel when you wake up?" Ziling saw Hu Yan wake up, stared at a pair of big watery eyes, and asked with a smile.

Although the injury was not light last night, after eating Zhuang Bai's Gu Yuan Dan, after some breathing, the internal injury was almost healed, but there was still some soreness around the body, especially the arm that was injured by Ben Hu, there was still some faint pain.

Hu Yan stood up from the ground, stretched his waist in the sun, rubbed Ziling's hair dotingly, and said, "Little girl, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Ziling snorted in disgust, glared at Hu Yan angrily, and said, "Little brother hates it to death, my freshly combed hair has made you mess it up again." ”

Ziling's well-behaved appearance made nonsense like a spring breeze, and even the haze in his heart was swept away, no matter what difficulties or sad things he encountered, as long as he saw Ziling's smiling face, he felt that his body was full of strength to persevere.

He knew that this was a bond between him and Ziling, and he couldn't cut off a relationship that he couldn't cut for a lifetime. And he also knows that this is not the love of men and women, but a feeling that is better than the love of brothers and sisters. Perhaps it is because of the similarities in the past experiences and life experiences between the two that the hearts of the two are tightly tied together.

Ziling was a little flustered by Hu Yan's gentle gaze, she blushed, and said with her mouth cocked: "Little brother, why are you looking at me like this, do you have flowers on my face?"

Hu Yan grinned and said: "Our girl's face is like a blooming flower, tsk, they are all so beautiful now, and they will have to do it when they grow up." ”

"Yo, I heard you two here early in the morning, I didn't see it, stinky boy, did you break your brain? It's not easy!" At this time, Jin Ning'er came out of the bushes on the side with a playful face, looked at Ziling's red little face, and couldn't help but laugh.

Hu Yan pursed his lips and said: "Our Ziling was born beautiful, and her personality is well-behaved, how can she be like you, a fierce girl, who is fierce all day long, and she is not likable at all." ”

"You ......" When Jin Ning'er heard this, she was immediately unhappy, and looked at the nonsense with her teeth squeaked, eager to eat him alive.

Hu Yan likes to see Jin Ning'er angry, as if as long as she is angry, she can get great satisfaction. A girl like Jin Ning'er who loves to play with the temper of the eldest lady should not be used to it.

"Little brother, don't say that about Sister Ning'er, Sister Ning'er is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she usually has a fierce mouth, but she actually cares about you very much. You were attacked last night, and she was more worried about your safety than I was. Ziling pulled the nonsense and motioned for the nonsense to coax Jin Ning'er, who was angry.

Jin Ning'er heard Ziling say this, crossed her mouth, and snorted coldly: "Who cares about him, hmph, this girl won't care about him, a big stupid boy!"

Hu Yan shrugged with a smile, spread his hands and said, "I'll just say, it's strange that this fierce girl will care about me." Although he said that, Hu Yan's eyes involuntarily turned to Jin Ning'er who was not far away......

"Brother Hu, hurry up and pack up for dinner, we should go on the road after breakfast. ”

"Got it, Brother Zhuang......"

After breakfast, everyone packed up and set out on the road to Maoshan again.

With Benhu's previous experience, everyone did not follow the original route towards the main road this time, but chose a remote path to detour. Although this will make everyone take a little more detours, it is much safer, at least they will not be followed.

Everyone went out of Fengdu, passed Enshi, passed through Wuhan, went all the way to the east, walked and rested, and did not arrive at the territory of Maoshan until the tenth day.

Maoshan is the birthplace of the Shangqing sect of Taoism, and is called the "Shangqing Altar" by Taoists. It has the reputation of "the first blessed land, the eighth cave heaven". There are nine peaks, nineteen springs, twenty-six holes, twenty-eight pools of the scenic spot, the peaks and peaks are stacked, the clouds and mist are swirling, the climate is pleasant, the strange rocks and strange stones on the mountain stand densely, the large and small karst caves are deep and secluded, the holy pond of Lingquan is dotted all over the place, the winding streams are criss-crossed and intertwined, the green trees cover the mountains, the green bamboo is luxuriant, and the treasure is abundant.

The main peak of Maoshan is like the head of the green dragon, it is also the highest peak of Maoshan Mountain, according to legend, the first five years of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, the three brothers of the Mao family in Xianyang, Shaanxi Province came to Maoshan to collect medicine and alchemy, help the world and save the people, known as the ancestor of Maoshan Taoism, after Qi Liang hermit Tao Hongjing set Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism three families founded the Taoist Maoshan faction Maoshan Taoism has a long history, according to legend, as early as more than 5,000 years ago, there were Gao Xin people in the era of the exhibition on the public cultivation in Juqu Mountain Fulongdi. In the pre-Qin period, there was a Yan native Guo Sichao who practiced in Yuchenguan. During the Qin period, Li Mingzhen cultivated in the Ancient Alchemy Academy. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Ge Hong, a native of Maoshan, practiced in Maoshan and wrote books. In the second year of Xingning in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Yang Xi and Xu Mi produced the "Shangqing Dadong True Scripture" and founded a sect with Jiangnan characteristics in Maoshan - Maoshan Shangqing School. Tao Hongjing, a famous Taoist priest of Qiliang in the Southern Dynasty, lived in seclusion in Maoshan for more than 40 years and was the main inheritor of the Shangqing School in Maoshan. Maoshan Taoism enjoys a high prestige and status in both the history of Taoism and the entire Xiuzhen world, and has won the reputation of "the immortal mansion of the Qin and Han dynasties, the home of the prime ministers of the Liang and Tang dynasties".

In the Tang and Song dynasties, Maoshan Taoism reached its heyday, the front mountain and the back ridge, between the peaks and valleys, the palace, the view, the hall, the Yu and other various sizes of Taoist buildings up to more than 300, more than 5,000 rooms, thousands of Taoist priests, there are "three palaces, five views, seventy-two Mao'an" said.

And today there is a lot of chaos, and there are constant wars. Maoshan Taoism has also suffered a lot of impact, and many small Taoist temples have been damaged, and now the Maoshan sect is criticized and isolated by various factions in the cultivation world. The entire Maoshan Taoism actually showed a hint of depression.

"I thought about how beautiful my Maoshan Taoism was before, but I didn't expect to be implicated in a murder case and fall into such a depression. Zhuang Bai looked at the destroyed small Taoist courtyard on the Mao Mountain, and his heart was full of emotion. He knew that all this was due to this sudden murder that pointed directly at the Maoshan faction. If all this hadn't happened, maybe the Maoshan faction wouldn't have fallen to this, and it would still be a great sect of cultivation with the name of Longhu Mountain and Hesoo Mountain. Nor will they be bullied.

Seeing Zhuang Bai's distraught face, Hu Yan couldn't help but feel a little distressed, so he stepped forward and comforted: "Brother Zhuang, the matter has come to this, we should find out the truth of the matter, so as to give justice to the Maoshan faction." I believe that there is a fair opinion on the merits. ”

Zhuang Bai glanced back at Hu Yan and nodded: "I understand, that's why I rushed back in such a hurry." Let's go, let's go up the mountain. As he spoke, he glanced thoughtfully at the foggy top of the mountain, and walked towards the mountain with a lot of thoughts.

Hu Yan understood what Zhuang Bai was thinking in his heart at this time, and he also knew his inner struggle. And this matter is about his master and uncle. After the murder, all kinds of signs show that the whole thing happened and related to the forbidden technique that was locked in the deep palace, and the forbidden technique was only known to Zhuang Bai's master and uncle, and these two people had the biggest suspicion......
