Clear water, clear cold waves.

The boat moves with the waves, and the fisherwoman walks with a song.

However, it is said that there is a prosperous country in the lower reaches of the Zimu River, called Xiliang, not the Xiliang Huma in the land of the eastern soil, but a country composed of women, where men are scarce, and the status is polarized, if the Xiliang female soldiers loot from other places, the man is 'male subordinate', and the neck is tied with a red rope which means 'the owner of the thing'; the status of the passer-by trader and wandering sword fairy is no different from ordinary people, for these men, there is only one prohibition in the Xiliang women's country.

It is not allowed to leave Xiliang with the water of the Zimu River.

It is also strange to say that this Zimu River stretches for hundreds of miles, and only in the branch section of the Xiliang Women's Country can it have the ability to conceive life, which is also an important reason why this women's country can multiply and inherit the ancient times.

After the last afterglow of the sunset, the boats on the river have also been moored on the shore, the moon rises from the east, and today happens to be a full moon again, the bright moonlight is reflected on the sparkling water, and a looming figure quietly flows to this piece of Xiliang country that belongs to women's rights.

As if sensing something, Zhou Bai opened his eyes in a trance, and found that he was floating on the water, and the surrounding river water was constantly exuding a strange aura, wanting to modify his essence through his physical body.

Zhou Bai's complexion changed, and then he smiled, it turned out that after the warmth of the river, the soul that was injured by the burning lamp in the Zhuxian Sword Formation Diagram actually returned to normal strangely, and the chaos beads in his body were constantly decomposing and devouring the strange fluctuations that modified the essence of the Yuan Shen.

Closing his eyes slightly, Zhou Bai's figure disappeared from the river in an instant.

The cold wind was clear, and the man who suddenly appeared on the bridge on the riverside alarmed the guards on the street, only to hear a sharp whistle, and more than a dozen women in armor surrounded Zhou Bai in front of him.

Zhou Bai looked at the heroic woman opposite and wondered: "This girl is not a wicked person below. ”

The female general in front of her had a cold face, her long sword was slightly raised, and Sen Ran's sword qi was uncertain, and after looking at Zhou Bai, she said coldly: "Since you are not a wicked person, why do you want to steal the water of my mother and child?!"

Zhou Bai was stunned for a moment, looked down at the bridge, and saw the river flowing eastward, and did not see anything unusual, and couldn't help asking: "Zimu River? ”

"Dare to quibble?!" The female general swung a sword, and the dozen or so female soldiers beside her did not have the slightest intention of going head-to-head, and one after another swords came one after another, tearing apart the tranquility of the night, reflecting Zhou Bai's clothes that had not yet dried.

Zhou Bai smiled bitterly, so he had to turn sideways to avoid it, and reached out to grab the long sword in front of him, these female soldiers are all qi cultivation, and the highest female general is only in the late stage of qi training, he has no intention of bullying others, but he also does not want to be provoked by a group of women.

In a moment, the female soldiers present only felt that the tiger's mouth was numb, and it was difficult to exert their strength, and the female general led by them had also been suppressed and banned by the immortal rank on the spot.

"Since Your Excellency has achieved the Immortal Dao, why do you still want to steal the water of my Mother and Son, aren't you afraid that the Holy Mother will blame you?!" the female general said with a face full of indignation, the gap in the realm is definitely not something that can be offset by courage, the cultivation in front of Zhou Bai is already in the late stage of the Golden Immortal, and even if the female general grits her teeth, she will not be able to break free from the pressure that far exceeds several realms.

Zhou Bai's heart moved, only to find that a stream exuding rich vitality had actually appeared in the Chaos Bead, and he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It was an accident to absorb the aura in the river, and there was no intention of stealing it from here." ”

Now it is only nightfall, the noise at the bridgehead naturally attracted the attention of the people, a horse red dust galloped along the main palace avenue, the female official in a brocade robe turned over and dismounted, walked quickly onto the bridge, and said loudly: "Don't do it. ’

The female general turned to look at the female officer, frowned slightly, leaned over and said, "I've seen Lord Qingyuan." The female soldiers behind him also bowed down in unison, and only Zhou Bai looked at the purple-clothed woman in front of him curiously.

In ancient times, purple was respected, and the woman in front of her was dressed in a dark purple official mansion, and the dark green square scarf pattern on the front was embroidered with these two flying colorful phoenixes, and she wanted to have a high status in this Xiliang.

Qingyuan stretched out his hand to help the female general, and said softly: "Is General Fenglai okay, have you ever been injured?" As he spoke, he reached out and kept touching the female general's wrists and shoulders, and even kept moving towards her chest.

Feng Lai's face turned cold, he reached out and knocked on the forehead of a female official, gritted his teeth and said, "How long do you want to touch it!"

'Oops~' Qingyuan's eyes were full of tears, he looked at Feng Lai with a face full of grievances, and pouted, "It hurts." ”

Hiss~~ Zhou Bai gasped, when he heard that the river under his feet was the Zimu River, he guessed that this was the famous 'daughter country', after the influence of countless films, television and literary works in his previous life, he naturally 'longed' for the future of opening a crystal palace here.

However, this time I met a blooming lily, and I couldn't help but be speechless.

To say that it is also a daughter country, although there is a child mother river to conceive and raise offspring, there will naturally be the existence of lilies, after all, there is no objective condition that 'lilies can't be born' in this kind of place.

'Cough~' Zhou Bai coughed lightly, interrupted the flirting two, and said with a smile: "This female official doesn't know what to do?"

Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Qingyuan took two steps back in fright, as if he had just discovered a man here, and covered his mouth and exclaimed, "Who are you?"

...... Smack~ Feng Lai knocked on Qingyuan again, and in her aggrieved expression, she said angrily: "What are you doing here!"

"It hurts. After being suppressed by force, Qingyuan remembered the purpose of this trip, quickly turned around, and said solemnly: "This monk is indeed from the upstream, and recently I heard that the demon girl Se Yan on Wuding Mountain is looking for a man everywhere, and after the national teacher calculates, this person in front of him is the person who fought with the demon girl outside Wuding Mountain that day. ”

Zhou Bai recalled the black shadow a few days ago, and knew in his heart, since this is a daughter country, then the scorpion venom in that day is the 'inverted horse pile' in Journey to the West, the spirit is thrown into the chaos bead, and the pitch-black scorpion tail is still swinging back and forth, but what is there in the void that can make it pierce?

Zhou Bai smiled slightly, and said: "On that day, I was traveling from the upper reaches of the sky, and a black light suddenly shot out from the valley, and I had no choice but to injure it, but I also fell into the river and drifted here.

Qingyuan nodded excitedly and said: "It's her, this demon girl is famous in the western frontier, almost no one dares to mess with it, for so many years, it is the first time that we have been so angry with that demon girl......

Seeing that Qingyuan was chattering a little again, Feng Lai couldn't help but sigh, pulled the corner of Qingyuan's clothes, and said helplessly: "Let's talk about the point." ”

Zhou Bai nodded in agreement.

Qingyuan glanced at Feng Lai resentfully, and said to Zhou Bai: "The National Teacher has invited the seniors to go for a while. Qingyuan paused and said suspiciously: "The national teacher said that if the seniors are unwilling to go, they just need to say the word 'interception'." "After that, he looked at Zhou Bai, and he didn't understand what this 'interception' was.

Zhou Bai's heart jumped, and he frowned: "Where is your national teacher?" Looking in the direction where the female official came, the end of the official road was the majestic palace, but in his perception, he did not see any immortal-level monks in the palace.

Qingyuan followed Zhou Bai's gaze, covered his mouth and smiled: "Senior, what are you thinking, the national teacher is a man, how can he live in the palace." ”

Feng Lai also breathed a sigh of relief, when she heard Qingyuan finish talking just now, she almost thought that there was some unclear relationship between the national teacher and His Majesty. Feng Lai hugged his fists and said: "The Taoist Temple of the National Teacher is in Xie Yang Mountain in the south direction, since the National Teacher wants to see you, then you can go over." Ignoring the confused Zhou Bai, he took Qingyuan's hand and walked towards the alley under the bridge.

"Fenglai, don't pull me, my skirt sleeves are torn by you. Qingyuan followed Feng in small steps, turned back to the female soldiers who looked at each other and said, "You guys just disperse, the national teacher said, this man is a good person." ”

"The national teacher sent you to deliver the news, why did you come from the palace?" Feng Lai frowned.

Qingyuan couldn't help but blush, and said embarrassedly: "I always have to change my clothes and come again.......

Along with the night breeze, Zhou Bai naturally heard the conversation between the two, touched his nose and couldn't help but shake his head, turned around and walked towards the street to the south.

The night is deep, and the moonlight is even better.

When Zhou Bai came to Xie Yang Mountain, it was already two watches, the moonlight in the sky sprinkled down on the mountains and forests, although it was the residence of the demon clan, there was no trace of ghosts and ghosts, and in the cold moonlight like water, there was a faint stream of light that fell on the Taoist temple at the end of the stone path.

The mountain road is winding, and there are still some slightly wet green moss marks on the stone steps.

Zhou Bai walked through the quiet mountain forest, a rather simple Taoist temple fell into front of him, Zhou Bai looked up, only to see that although the Taoist temple was simple, it also had an inexplicable feeling of being dusty in the world.

When he saw the Taoist plaque, Zhou Bai's soothing brows couldn't help but lock, this authentic Taoist law is natural, independent of the world, but the plaque on the door gives people an extreme sense of disobedience, it is obviously a Taoist dojo, but it hangs the name of a Buddhist door.

Zhou Bai couldn't help but read the three words on the plaque, 'Juxian Nunnery'.

What is the 'hermitage', the nunnery is closed to the house, especially referring to the temple where the women's practice lives, in other words, the Taoist gate is 'Guan', the Buddhist gate is 'hermitage', the plaque handwriting is obviously from the hands of women, although it has not been paid, but Zhou Bai can still feel the remnants of a humane luck.

There are two kinds of people who can control the spirit of humanity, one is the Confucian power, and the other is the official emperor.

Zhou Bai looked back, the palace in the distance was still brightly lit, but the closed door in front of him was cold and empty, just when he was about to reach out and knock on the door, an ethereal voice came from the nunnery.

"Brother Zhou Baidao, please come in. ”

Zhou Bai smiled when he heard this, and pushed open the door.

As soon as he entered the nunnery, Zhou Bai only felt that his eyes lit up.

I saw that in the night sky, the moonlight was like water, condensing into a cloud of moonlight, putting Zhou Bai in the clear light, but the middle-aged Taoist in front of him was like the bright moon in the world, making people unable to take their eyes off.

Suddenly, the light burst out, the quiet night was white, and there was clear light everywhere, and the peach trees in the courtyard were vivid, and even the most subtle textures could be seen clearly.

"What a true cultivator. Zhou Bai sighed in his heart, and did not speak, but stood quietly on the edge of the small courtyard, watching the Taoist in the court absorb the essence of Yuehua.

A gust of wind rose, the peach trees swayed, pieces fell, and a rain of flowers fell.

The Taoist stood under the tree for a long time, and suddenly two drops of transparent water floated out from his side, one was overflowing with vitality, which was the source of all things, and the other was filled with dead air, like the end of life.

The peach blossom lives on the peach tree, and when it leaves the branches, it dies, and when it falls on the ground and dissolves in the soil, it will slowly dissolve into fertilizer, and finally it is absorbed by the roots of the peach tree.

And the same is true of the two drops of water in his hand, life and death, death and life.

The clear water drips, the peach blossoms sprout branches and buds everywhere, and they have grown into lush peach trees in just a few breaths, and the flowers bloom and fall, and the trees are full of fresh peaches.

Zhou Bai stretched out his hand to pick the peach in front of him, and took a bite, the peach flesh melted in his mouth, becoming the essence of the Yuehua spiritual power flowing into his body, although these spiritual powers have not improved his cultivation too much, for mortal cultivators, they are rare spiritual fruit artifacts in the world.

With a wave of his long sleeves, all the fruit trees in the courtyard disappeared, leaving only the peach trees with lush branches and pink petals covering the courtyard.

"Poor Dao Ruyi, I have seen Brother Zhou Baidao. The Taoist smiled, and the two mustaches also unfolded, giving people an inexplicable joy. "The Great Sage of the Peaceful Heaven of Jilei Mountain is my brother. ”

Zhou Bai then understood: "It turned out to be Ruyi Daoyou, a few days ago, I vaguely heard that Kuiniu Daoyou has a younger brother who is meditating in the extreme west, it must be Your Excellency, right?"

Ruyi True Immortal said: "It is indeed a poor way." ”

"Daoyou's hand creation technique is magical, it really amazes me. Zhou Bai opened his palm, and the fresh peach he bit instantly turned into stars and sprinkled under the peach tree.

Ruyi Zhenxian waved his hand and said: "But it's opportunistic, where can I match my brother's deep foundation and stable realm." ”

The two chatted for a while, and Ruyi Zhenxian also talked about the summons he received a month ago, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Brother Dao stopped the lamp alone that day, so the righteous brother and the 100,000 soldiers of Jilei Mountain will be grateful." ”

"A few days ago, I heard that outside Wuding Mountain, there was a monk who was seriously injured in Wuding Mountain while escaping, and he knew that it was Brother Dao who did it, and now he saw that Brother Dao was fine, and Poor Dao and his brother can rest assured. ”

Zhou Bai smiled bitterly when he heard this: "This trip to burn the lamp is for me, in the final analysis, it is I who have affected the people of Kuiniu Daoyou and Jilei Mountain, so I have to deal with it personally." Speaking of this, Zhou Bai hurriedly asked, "I don't know if after that day, the Buddha Sect has ever done anything to Jilei Mountain?"

Ruyi Zhenxian looked proud, touched his beard and said with a smile: "The quasi-saint has already fallen into the face of Buddhism after returning in vain, and they later sent Fuhu Arhat and 800 bhikshus to encircle and suppress the thunder, but they were ambushed by Moke Daoyou, and the bhikshu was destroyed and the tiger was defeated. ”

Zhou Bai nodded and said reassuringly: "That's fine." "The desolate world has a heavy skin, two causes and effects, and if one shot is unsuccessful, Buddhism will naturally not make another shot in the short term.

The westward journey is imminent, countless people's eyes have fallen on the Buddha's body, and now the face has fallen and nothing has happened, and when the westward journey is over, the Buddha's great prosperity is unmatched, and at that time, these causes and effects will be settled one by one.
