Qingshan smiled bitterly and did not reply, and the old man saw that his expression suddenly became depressed, and asked, "Are you bothered by your own nature?" If you can trust me, you may as well tell me, maybe I can give you advice." ”

Qingshan hesitated for a moment, and finally smiled reluctantly, "The seniors are too worried, and the juniors are actually just a little emotional, and they don't have anything to worry about." ”

The old man didn't want to say more, and he didn't ask more, he just needed to make sure that Qingshan really liked Xiao Tengnan. So he was silent for a while and then said, "Little one, I won't talk about your business for the time being, but I have something here that I want to ask you for a favor." ”

Qingshan was stunned again, and then immediately replied loudly: "The seniors have something to ask, as long as the juniors can do it, they will definitely go all out." ”

But the old man's next words made Qingshan so shocked that he almost dropped his jaw, "I wonder if you are willing to take Xiao Teng Nan away?"

"This" Qingshan was shocked, and he couldn't reply at all for a while.

The old man frowned slightly, "Don't you want to?"

"No, no, no. Qingshan shook his head again and again, "The seniors have misunderstood, the juniors are just too surprised, isn't Xiao Teng Nan living happily here? Why do you want me to take him away? Besides, isn't it safer for him to follow the seniors?"

The old man didn't answer, but looked up at Xiao Teng Nan who was jumping around in the stable, and his eyes flashed with reluctance, "You see, what a simple and sensible child he is." ”

Aoyama couldn't help but smile.

The old man said again: "Such a sensible child, do you think I will be willing to let him leave me?"

"Is there a reason why the senior had to let him go?"

"Hmm. ”

"I wonder if the senior can tell me why?"

The old man withdrew his gaze and looked at the sky with his eyes blurred, "Because my limit is near." ”

Aoyama couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "The deadline is coming?"

The old man nodded gloomily, "That's right. ”

After getting the old man's confirmation, Aoyama couldn't help but take a deep breath, "Senior, do you know how long it will take?" This seemed to be an impolite question, but in such a situation, Aoyama didn't have the energy to think about it so much.

"There are still ten years. ”

Cultivating to the realm of an old man, his grasp of his longevity can already be said to be accurate, he said that ten years, it is definitely ten years, even if it is useless to take how many heavenly treasures that can increase longevity, unless his realm can continue to improve, but that is no longer possible.

"If there is an elixir to increase longevity, I wonder if it will be useful to the seniors?"

The old man smiled, smiling very calmly, as if he was not talking about his life and death, "Any pills are useless, my longevity has come to an end, I want to continue to live, unless I can improve the realm, let alone ten years, even if I give me another thousand years, I can't break through at all." ”

What kind of concept is this? Qingshan was completely incomprehensible and completely unable to comprehend it, but after thinking about it, he soon realized it again, and he remembered that Bi Ran once said: In the current cultivation realm, no matter who it is, if there is no absolutely safe place, there is absolutely no monk who dares to rush into the catastrophe.

Because it is not only the heavenly calamity, but also the earth calamity, and the more terrible thing is the human calamity.

After being silent for a while, Qingshan sighed and asked, "What kind of cultivation did the seniors have?" He had always been very curious about this.

"What kind of cultivation? Hehe, little guy, don't be too ambitious, it's better to be a down-to-earth person and take one step at a time, besides, with your ontology, it may not be possible to cultivate to a realm like mine. The old man didn't answer, but instead educated Qingshan.

Aoyama smiled bitterly when he heard this, thinking to himself when I was so ambitious? I was just curious.

But he didn't dare to say this in front of the old man, not to say whether the old man would be angry, once he said so, first of all, it would be a great disrespect to the old man, and Qingshan didn't dare to take this risk.

The old man's voice had just finished for a while, but he suddenly let out a long sigh, "Don't talk about this, let's talk about you." ”

"Me?"

"That's right, are you willing to promise me to help take care of little Teng Nan?"

Faced with the old man's question again, Qingshan couldn't help but respond, so he smiled bitterly: "The younger generation doesn't know if he can come back alive, how can he take care of him?"

"You're going to the Ice Field?" Although the old man usually doesn't leave this mountain forest, he often has people here to bring fodder, how could he not know about the Tiankeng in Beiyue City that has been rumored recently? Not to mention his status, even if he doesn't ask, there are a lot of people who will take the initiative to report to him.

Aoyama just nodded slightly.

"You should know that there will be a lot of monks going to the ice field this time, with your realm, what can you get in the end by risking your life to go there like this?"

"The juniors said that the juniors know it, but the juniors have a reason to go. ”

The old man looked at Qingshan for a long time, but this time he looked at Qingshan with a very different look in his eyes than before, "Is it convenient to talk about it?"

Qingshan only felt that he was under the gaze of the old man, and he had seen through everything from the outside to the inside, and he couldn't help but say: "The junior's wife is below, so the junior must go down to find her." ”

In fact, the old man didn't use any means against Aoyama, he just put a little pressure on him, but it was strange that Aoyama blurted out so naturally.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, juniors are sure. ”

"Alas. The old man sighed again, "In that case, I won't advise you anymore." ”

"Thank you seniors for your understanding, if the juniors are lucky enough not to die, they will definitely come back. ”

"Well, although I can't help you, the monks of Beiyue City will still sell me a little face, so let's take my warrant with you and show it to them if you are in trouble. ”

The words handed Qingshan a very quaint sign, with two lifelike green dragons painted on the front and back of the sign.

The symbol of the highest status of Beiyue City, whether it is the sect master of the Feather Transformation Sect or the pavilion master of the Qilin Pavilion, they must be respectful in front of the Blue Dragon Token.

Because the Qinglong token represents the old man, the old man represents the entire Beiyue City.

Of course, Qingshan didn't know this, and it was impossible to think too much about it at all, he only knew that since the old man said so, then this token would definitely work more or less.

So, I didn't hesitate to take it, "Thank you, senior." ”

The old man shook his head lightly and said, "Although the monks of Beiyue City will sell my face, there may be other dangers under the sinkhole, so you still can't take it lightly." ”

Qingshan nodded heavily, "Juniors know." ”

The old man nodded slightly, "Well, go ahead, go talk to that little guy more, and cultivate more feelings." Although the old man's words were not optimistic, when Aoyama took the token, he decided that Aoyama would definitely be able to come back.

Qingshan nodded again, walked quickly to the horse farm, Xiao Tengnan saw him coming, dropped the forage in his hand and ran to Qingshan, blinked his eyes and asked, "Uncle, have you finished talking to grandpa?"

Qingshan bent down and picked him up, and gently pinched his little face, "yes, have you finished feeding the horse?"

"Not yet. ”

"Is it okay for that uncle to help you?"

"Okay!" Xiao Teng Nan cheered excitedly, "Uncle, can you help me get the forage?"

"Good. ”

The next period of feeding the horses can be described as a rare time for Qingshan to really relax, for so many years, he has actually been tightening a string, whether it is saving the master or reproducing the glory of Yanyun, it has been pressing on his shoulders like a mountain, making him feel almost out of breath many times

It's still snow, but the difference is that last time he was alone, but today it was crowded.

What made Qingshan stunned was that so many people were crowded here, but they were not flustered at all, but orderly.

Suddenly, a bearded monk asked in his deep voice, "Hey, are you going down to the sinkhole too?"

Qingshan was slightly stunned, and asked cautiously, "I don't know what advice you have?"

The bearded man waved his hand impatiently, "What are you doing?" ”

"Yes and what, no and what?"

"It's very simple, if yes, show your sect certificate. ”

"Sect proof, what do you want to do with this?"

"So you're not a local?"

"What if it's not?"

"If not, go to the left to line up after handing over the spirit stones, and if yes, wait on the right. ”

Qingshan's pupils shrank, "Jiaoling Stone?"

"That's right, the ice was originally the territory of our Beiyue City, how can you outsiders do whatever they want? Listen, if you want to go down, you can hand over the spirit stone immediately, and if you don't want to go down, you can roll as far as you want. ”

No wonder this place looks so orderly, it turns out that Beiyue City sent someone to manage it.

Aoyama couldn't help but look up at the people on his left, and found that they were all full of helplessness on their faces, obviously, they must have been treated the same as himself.

He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why have I never heard that the Arctic Ice Sheet is the territory of your Beiyue City?"

The bearded monk glared, "Why are you talking so much nonsense, or not?" Give Lao Tzu a happy word. As soon as he started to speak loudly, countless pairs of eyes immediately looked at him.

The foreign monks all had wry smiles on their faces, but the local monks were all full of anger.

Qingshan saw that their faces were not good, and if they disagreed, they would have a big fight, not to mention the others, even if Qingshan was confident that he would not suffer under these people, but he didn't want to get into trouble at such a time, so he could only ask in a deep voice: "How many spirit stones?"

The bearded man twitched the corners of his mouth, raised his hand and raised his rootless fingers, and slowly spoke: "500,000 medium-grade spirit stones." ”

"What? you might as well grab it!" Aoyama was so excited that he couldn't control his emotions.

Qingshan's words fell, and someone on the local monk's side suddenly shouted: "Boy, can you try to say one more thing? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu will break your leg and throw it out of Beiyue City now?"

"The guy who hides his head and tail, why do we talk so much nonsense with him?

"That's right, what annoys me the most is this kind of masked person, and it's not a pity for such a person to die. ”
