Chapter Twenty-Three: Tailgating into the Battle
So, a rain that was supposed to have been falling for many days stopped.
The rain clouds above the sky for hundreds of miles were all collected by Lori, and the clear sky replaced the rain, and only the wet grass and muddy roads proved that it had rained here.
He Yi went directly to the medicine house in Lao Langzhong, and at this time, the blind Lao Langzhong was pounding medicine.
He didn't deliberately slow down, so before he reached the door, the footsteps were already heard by Lao Langzhong. Lao Langzhong kept his hands on the ground, still busy, and just asked casually: "Prescribe medicine, or see a doctor?"
He Yi walked into the door a few steps, thought about it, and replied, "It's a doctor." ”
Look at the heart disease. He said in his heart.
"Oh. The old man answered, asked him to sit down, and pounded it in the stone mortar a few times before he came over and asked him where he was uncomfortable.
He Yi didn't know how to answer, but just stretched out his hand to give the old man a medium pulse.
His body is unharmed, and even if he can't fully recover from his backlash injury, he is still very healthy. The old man's thin finger rested on his wrist for a while, then he shook his head and said, "You flying immortals, you love to find us mortals to have fun. There are thousands of benefits in the mountains, and it depends on the chance, so why bother to force more. ”
This posture was seen at a glance that he was an immortal cultivator, and looking at his tone, he was still a little displeased.
Although He Yi's actual age is much older than this old man, he has respect for the blind old man in front of him, and he just wants to ask questions, not to make things difficult. He replied: "The old gentleman may have misunderstood, and he is not here for the treasure in the Great Smoky Mountains, but for something else. If you have a way to get in and out, you will be grateful for your advice. ”
There were also some low-grade spirit herbs that he had encountered in the formation before, but those things were nothing to He Yi at all. Mo said that it was an ordinary spiritual object, but there was a rare immortal weapon in this world, and he would not blink his eyes more.
Who knew that the old man didn't buy it, but said: "Which one of you came here is not for important things? What others want is just fairy grass and fairy stones, you say this, I'm afraid that what you want is more valuable. ”
Whatever is needed is important, and this cannot be refuted. It is not wrong to say that he wants more valuable, after all, in his eyes, no utensils and treasures can compare to the person he is looking for at this moment.
Without waiting for him to say more, Lao Langzhong waved his hand and said, "You go, the old mortal body is broken, and there is nothing to help." If the immortals really have something important to look for, why should they be afraid of the danger?"
He Yi frowned. It can be seen that this old man must have attracted a lot of attention because of his ability to enter and exit the Great Smoky Mountain, and he has already been troubled by many immortal cultivators, so he will say these words. Since the other party didn't want to say it, he couldn't force it, the soul search was too vicious, and he was never willing to do it.
"Excuse me, sir, take my leave. He Yi didn't say much, just left.
Originally, he didn't have much hope when he heard Lori say that this old man didn't get in the oil and salt, but since he couldn't ask anything, he would quietly follow when the other party was going to collect medicine. The monks of the Hunkun realm will be lost, and he feels that he should not be so bad.
Out of the medicine house, He Yi did not go far, but hid his tracks, and walked with Lori to another house in the same village.
The family originally consisted of only two people, an old farmer and an old peasant woman. After Lori entrusted seven evil alliance children to this last time, it became lively.
Those children had been very frightened after being baptized in blood in the Demon Palace, and nearly three months had passed before they got better. Although they were born in the evil way, the children are children after all, and they are basically just getting started, and their hearts have not been affected by the evil concept, and there is not much difference between them and their peers.
Lori brought seven children, and by the way, she went to get some financial rice and grain for the old farmer, and now three months have passed, and the childless couple has more laughter than before. is just raising a group of children of unknown origin, but it also makes the neighbors gossip a lot.
He Yi didn't care about so many things, he just went with Lori, glanced at it from a distance through the fence, and left quietly. For him, these people are his last bargaining chip, and if he really doesn't get anything in the Great Smoky Mountains, he can only rely on them in the end.
As for whether the scene seen in the dream will really be fulfilled, it can only be confirmed by time.
The rain was forced to stop, and according to Lori's observation in March, Lao Lang was going to go into the mountains again to collect medicine in the near future. He Yi waited patiently for two days, and when the sun dried the muddy mountain road, he saw the old man walking out of the village with a cane and a medicine hoe.
He followed quietly, but an accident happened, and he let Lori stay, only going in with Xiao Yi. Lori was a little unhappy, but she couldn't stand his serious expression, not like a joke, so she had to nod her head in agreement.
didn't let her follow, He Yiyi was worried that there might be more dangers in the depths of the Great Smoky Mountains, and he didn't want to drag her on, and another point was to ensure the safety of the seven children, or the villagers.
The old man was at the age of the sixtieth year, his body was still very strong, and he was not slow to walk, and it didn't take long for him to reach the edge of the invisible formation. He Yi had been hiding his breath and traces and quietly followed, and when he flew at low altitude, he didn't even attract much airflow.
The edge of the formation outside the Great Smoky Mountains was invisible, but on the side closest to the village, someone had made some fences to warn passers-by.
Along the way, He Yi gradually discovered that although this old man was blind and couldn't see, his behavior was not much different from that of a normal person. Whether it is going downhill, crossing the ditch, or pulling the fence, it is as if it can be seen, and there is no slow hesitation and groping. Maybe that's what makes him extraordinary!
Quietly followed, and after Lao Langzhong crossed the fence, he disappeared into thin air after walking a few steps. He Yi took three breaths to keep up, and entered the big array from the same position, and then the scene in front of him changed, and he really came to a cloudy landscape.
Maybe it was because of the different position and way of entering, but this time he didn't directly appear in the range of dense clouds with a field of vision of only ten zhang, and his eyes could see dozens of zhang away.
Lao Langzhong was just a few steps ahead, he was familiar with the road with bamboo cane and shoes, and he walked on the green grass without a road, not like a blind man. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he stopped by the stream and took two sips of the water in the creek for a short rest. After resting, he continued on his way, walking towards a grove not far away, and when he was able to enter the forest, he began to collect herbs by touch and taste.
The difficulty of this blind man collecting medicine is naturally much higher than that of normal people, but He Yi looked at it from a distance, but he felt that this old man found medicinal materials even faster than normal people. All he had to do was move his nose and reach out to touch it, and he would get a rough idea of what he was going to take. Sometimes, when he encounters a medicine that is difficult to distinguish, he will also break off the leaves, taste it himself, and then decide whether he wants it or not.
He Yi followed for a while, but he never saw anything otherworldly about Lao Langzhong, but his perception was relatively keen. If there is anything special about it, it may be because the blind cannot see the fog outside, so that they can rely on the rest of their perception to walk through the smoky mountains.
Is it feasible to break into the big formation with your eyes closed?
He Yi was noncommittal, and stayed behind Lao Langzhong for a while.
The Great Smoky Mountains have been transformed from a blessed and benevolent land to a dangerous place many years ago, so there are many wild medicines in this area. After the old man entered the forest, he picked for half an hour in a row, until the medicine basket was full, and then sat down on a fallen dead tree to rest.
He Yi held on to the last trace of hope, hoping that he could walk deeper into the big array after he got up. Unexpectedly, it backfired, and after resting enough, Lao Langzhong carried the medicine basket on his back and returned the same way with a cane.
Passing by the stream, Lao Langzhong went down and drank two sips of water, and then he didn't turn back into the big array. He Yi followed closely, and only after the old man's figure disappeared out of thin air in front of him did he stop at the edge of the big array. He looked at the void in front of him and was silent for a long time, thought about it, and finally did not go out, but came to the edge of the stream.
The difference between Lao Langzhong and ordinary people is that it comes from these streams?
He Yi thought about it, and felt that the water of this stream was clear and clean, with a faint hint of agility, which was indeed better than ordinary spring water, but it was not easy to change a person.
He took two sips of the stream water, and the cool stream water flowed into his stomach, which had the effect of refreshing his mind, and at the same time, the faint wisp of spiritual breath also quietly sneaked into his body, slightly improving his physique. This kind of improvement is actually almost the same as nothing, if it weren't for the fact that his clear realm divine thoughts were extremely powerful, he wouldn't be able to find it at all, according to this level of improvement, maybe only by drinking it for tens or hundreds of years could he achieve the effect of purifying the body and removing turbidity.
Is it really too much to think about?
The clouds and mist between the heavens and the earth are ethereal, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there are more birds, dragonflies, hares, and squirrels active, such a place where Zhong Lingyu is beautiful can definitely become a place for cultivating immortals if there is no mysterious formation, but the existence of that big array is to put a veil of mystery on all this, and even become dangerous.
He Yi thought about it, and finally decided to go deeper again and carefully search the Great Smoky Mountain. If he saw the Devil Vine again this time, he would no longer use the extreme speed of the Heavenly Immortal Powerhouse to fly, but closed his eyes and walked along the mountain wall step by step!
After figuring it out, he first went out of the big array to inform Lori of his plans, and then took Xiao Yi back to the mysterious world shrouded in clouds.
Stepping on the soft grass and silently reciting the mantra of purifying the heart, He Yi walked forward quickly with the pace of ordinary people, regardless of whether it was a stream or a forest in front of him, a mountain peak or a stubborn rock.
He still clearly remembers the experience of walking out of the formation last time, if the changes of the scene do not contain the mystery of spatial transfer, maybe the internal space of this formation is not as big as imagined. He walked all the way, and after walking at a brisk pace, he only half an hour later, and then he felt that he had come to a barren mountain in front of him.
There is no grass or trees in the barren mountains, only crimson mountains and rocks are distributed, and the clouds and mist are not less, and they are becoming more and more dense.
Shen Nian couldn't reach too far, so he walked straight along the barren mountain, thinking that he was blind, and no matter what was under his feet, he stepped on it in one step. A moment later, as he walked down the slope of the first barren mountain, a dull roar reached his ears. If you look closely, the sound seems to be coming from a tiger!
