Chapter Twenty-Seven: Into the Mountains
It's the day of departure.
Early in the morning, when the sky was bright, Qin Yun left the Qin Mansion and rode to the county guard's mansion.
"Ladies and gentlemen. ”
Lord County Guard received Yi Xiao, Qin Yun, and Jia Huairen's master and servant in the main hall.
"The thousand-year-old ice jade fruit is related to the life and death of old age. Lord County Shou said solemnly, "On this trip, please do your best to collect the spiritual fruit, if it is successful, the old man will not forget your kindness for the rest of his life." ”
"Uncle Wen, we agreed, and naturally we will do our best. Isho said.
"Lord Gunden is waiting for good news. Qin Yun also said.
"This spiritual fruit, we will definitely get it for the county guard. Jia Huairen also said confidently.
Beside him, a waiter holds a plate with five bronze wine glasses, in which wine has been poured.
The warden took a glass of wine.
Yi Xiao, Qin Yun, Jia Huairen, and Uncle Qian, the old servant of the monster, also took a glass of wine each.
"When you go to Cangya Mountain, you will listen to Yi Xiao's orders and don't make your own decisions. I will also rush to the foot of Cangya Mountain tomorrow, and I will wait for you at the bottom of the mountain when the time comes. The warden raised his glass, "Anyway, I'm all up to you." ”
Yi Xiao, Qin Yun and the other four also raised their glasses.
Drink all the wine in the glass together.
"Uncle Win, take your leave. After Yi Xiao finished speaking, he left the hall, and the four of them all got on their horses and quickly left the county guard's mansion.
The warden watched them leave from afar.
"Dad, the thousand-year-old ice jade fruit will definitely be obtained. Wen Chong also stood beside his father and whispered.
......
"Da-da-da-da. ”
After Qin Yun and the four of them left Guangling County, they followed the official road all the way to the north, and the horses' hooves galloped fast.
If the county is densely populated, the common people want to live in a safer city, and even the price of private housing is extremely high. The outside of the city is sparsely populated, and it is often not seen for a long time, and occasionally a village is a large village with thousands of people! Because the common people have gathered enough, they can form a strong enough village protection group, equipped with a large number of bows and crossbows to deter some small demons.
In addition, with the Patrol Division ready to come to support, the Terrans can survive outside the city.
If you talk about the city, the imperial court occupies absolute control.
Outside the city, there is a world of human race and monsters!
"Ahead is Yu'an County. At noon, Qin Yun and the four of them arrived in Yu'an County, and they didn't encounter any danger along the way. Because youkai are scarce compared to the human race, they are not so easy to encounter them.
"More than 20 miles west of Yu'an County is Cangya Mountain. Yi Xiao said, "Let's stay in Yu'an County for a night first, and then enter the mountain tomorrow morning." ”
"Listen to Miss Ishaw. Jia Huairen said.
He was also very helpless, when Yi Xiao was in the county guard mansion a few days ago, he also went to visit and wanted to see him often. However, Miss Yixiao has been in retreat and has not seen any visitors!
When I entered the city, I chose a good inn and stayed.
The summer nights are cool, but there are many mosquitoes.
Qin Yun sat alone on the roof of the inn, drinking wine. It's rare that one day he doesn't practice the natal flying sword, and he can't sleep, so he finds the shopkeeper and takes a pot of wine and drinks it slowly.
"Whew. A figure floated down on the roof, like a fairy descending.
"Brother Qin doesn't sleep so late. Yi Xiao sat aside and asked with a smile, "Are you thinking about entering the mountain tomorrow?"
"Just admiring and appreciating the night, no, now there is a beautiful view, there is good wine, and there is Miss Yi to accompany you, if you go to bed earlier, how can there be such a good thing. Qin Yun said with a smile.
Yi Xiao pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't drink alone, give me a taste." ”
"Give. Qin Yun threw it away.
Yi Xiao took it, looked up at the spout of the wine jug and poured the wine directly, and took a big sip, but choked and coughed twice, wiping the wine from the corner of his mouth.
"Usually drink less?" Qin Yun asked when he saw this.
"Usually in the sect, the master is strict. Yi Xiao said simply, and then said, "By the way, Brother Qin, this time I went to Cangya Mountain, that Jia Huairen's monster servant is still of some use, although he is very loyal to the Jia family, but after all, he is a monster, if he finds something wrong, whether it is you or me, you can directly get rid of him." ”
"There are many monsters in Cangya Mountain, if he calculates us, he will naturally not be able to get rid of them. Qin Yun nodded, "Lord County Shou also said, this time everything is up to you, you can do what you say." ”
"That's Uncle Wen trusting me. Yi Xiao said with a smile, "In terms of experience, Brother Qin is much richer than me, and I also ask Brother Qin for more guidance, so that I can be more sure of picking the spirit fruit." ”
"There's not much to say. Qin Yundao.
"Brother Qin, please say a few words, I don't have a score in my heart this time. Yi Xiao urged.
Qin Yun said: "There's no need to worry, picking the spirit fruit, the key is that you have to hide your strength at the beginning, it's best not to reveal your whereabouts and sneak into the place where the thousand-year-old ice jade fruit is." If it is really exposed, it can only expose part of its strength, so that the monsters don't feel too threatened, and they must not let the monsters feel unstoppable and destroy the spirit fruit. ”
"As soon as the spirit fruit is ripe, it will naturally grab the fruit immediately. Qin Yun said, "This fruit grabbing must be fast, and it is better to be secretive, because there must be monsters guarding the side of the spirit fruit." If they see that they can't stop it, I'm afraid they will destroy the fruit. ”
"As for getting the fruit, then hurry down the mountain and flee for your life. Qin Yun said, "Because the fruit is in hand, it will definitely alarm the monsters, and the monsters will definitely go crazy." ”
Yi Xiao nodded when he heard this: "I think the same way." ”
"The process is simple, but when you do it, you have to be bold and careful, and you have to be neat. Qin Yun said, "In case of some unexpected situations, you can respond temporarily." By the way, do youkai know when the spirit fruit is ripe?"
"The thousand-year-old ice jade fruit used to ripen once in a hundred years, and it took ten times before there was a thousand-year-old ice jade fruit. Because the time is so long, it is impossible for the monsters to calculate what day and hour it will be when it is ripe. Yi Xiao said, "Uncle Wen also invited a master who is good at deduction to deduce in detail, so that he can determine that when the thousand-year-old ice jade fruit is ripe, it will be tomorrow's time." ”
Qin Yun nodded: "That's good, the monsters don't know exactly what day and hour, they only know about the past two months, then we have a lot of certainty." ”
"If the youkai knew when the spirit fruit was ripe, it would be difficult for us to secretly pick it. Yi Xiao smiled, "As for tomorrow, I'll ask Brother Qin Yun to help me more." ”
"It's also about helping each other. Qin Yun said, "I'm good at hand-to-hand combat, but I'm not good at attacking from afar." ”
"I'm the opposite, I'm not good at close combat. Yi Xiao smiled, those who practice spells generally try to keep their distance from monsters, and monsters are generally very strong in melee combat!
......
The next morning, the sky was bright.
Qin Yun and the four of them immediately left the inn, and when the gate of the county seat was opened, they left Yu'an County and headed for Nacangya Mountain.
"Cangya Mountain. ”
Just over twenty miles, the horses galloped and soon arrived.
"The highest mountain in Guangling County. Qin Yun looked up, the mountain was majestic, and the mountain was even higher than the clouds, and he didn't know how many monsters were hidden in this mountain.
The four of them dismounted and tied their horses to the woods.
"Ladies and gentlemen. ”
Yi Xiao looked at Qin Yun, Jia Huairen, and the monster servant Uncle Qian, "The ugly words are ahead, everything is done according to what was said before, this time we enter the mountain, we must quietly try not to alarm any monster." If someone is too careless, or deliberately alarms the monster. Don't blame me for being unsympathetic under the Five Elements God Thunder. When he said this, there was thunder flashing in Yi Xiao's eyes.
Jia Huairen couldn't help but feel afraid, and said, "Don't worry, Miss Yi, what do you say, what do we do." ”
"Everything listens to Miss Yi. "Uncle Qian, the old servant of the monster, also said, even the old servant Uncle Qian did not resist confidence in the face of the famous Five Elements Divine Thunder.
"The top disciples of the Great Sect are indeed extraordinary. Seeing this, Qin Yun secretly sighed.
"Let's go, go into the mountains. Yi Xiao gave an order.
The four of them quietly went up the mountain, and even Jia Huairen, who was the weakest, also knocked on the immortal gate, and it was idle to cross the mountains and mountains.
