Chapter 16: The Valley of the Hidden Immortals

Since the news of Yue Fan's big trouble spread over Situ Zhuan, many people from the rivers and lakes have come to Yingtian City, some seeking revenge and some inquiring about the news. Situ Qian has not been quiet for a day, the nursing home has almost become an ornament, this person comes to visit for a while, and the person comes to inquire again, which makes Situ Xiangdong worry all day long but helpless.

Among them, the one who impressed Situ Xiangdong the most was an old man with a big knife on his back. I remember that it was late at night, and the old man stepped on the roof and fell from the sky, and the battle was so great that it alarmed all the people in Situ Tuo. After landing, the old man didn't say a word, and asked with a knife: "Where is that kid Yue Fan......

Later, Situ Xiangdong learned that the old man was Kou Fei, one of the top ten masters of the righteous path.

......

After the battle of Pingyanding, the rivers and lakes seem to have returned to their former calm, and even some small gangs and factions rarely fight each other, and there is a lot of talk and laughter in the restaurant, and everything is so peaceful and stable. But on such days, everyone prefers to believe that this is the calm before the storm, and they are preparing for the future. The rivers and lakes have always been tombs with hot blood.

Now the most uploaded news about Li Yuefan in the rivers and lakes is still there, there are rumors that he broke the "dog fighting array" alone, there is also the battle history of his miraculous skills on the top of Pingyan, and the mysterious "absolute arrow".

One of the most shocking is that "upstairs upstairs" announced to the rivers and lakes that Li Yuefan's hanging red on the "Black List" would be removed. This is the first passive change of "Black List", and it is also the first time that "Upstairs Upstairs" admits its its defeat, which seems to herald the beginning of something. They didn't explain much, and only returned the dark red double to its original owner. Most people understand this approach. Dare to face the strong men of the major forces with his own strength, such a person is indeed not easy to provoke, at least without absolute strength and very necessary, no one will provoke this fierce god.

Compared with the rivers and lakes, the whole world is much more lively, or it is said that the war is continuous.

In the northern part of the Ming Dynasty, alien races sprung up, and the Jurchens and Tatars seemed to have planned to move and attack the border cities outside the Saiwai at the same time; in the southeast, the rebel army continued to expand, and its momentum was unabated; the war reports on the border famine never stopped, which can be described as a foreign invasion and internal strife. Only the southwest and other places are slightly calmer and quieter. Occasionally, one or two waves of bandits rebelled, and they did not dare to be presumptuous under the suppression of Luo Kui, the governor of Liangguang.

There was even more chaos in the court, and the factions of the ministers were clearly arguing. There are those who fight the main battle, those who negotiate peace, and those who have a moderate position, so the situation makes Chongzhen a headache. And all this is just a superficial form, and in the dark there are even more turbulent waves, and there is no shortage of talk about the assassination of the emperor.

It seems that the current situation of the Ming Dynasty is precarious and has come to the end of history.

......

The cool breeze of late autumn blows slowly over the mountains, and the softness of the sunset cannot hide the melancholy of dusk......

Listen to the melodious flute sound drifting thousands of miles, telling of bitterness and sorrow. There is no melody of heaven, there is no beautiful note, but I don't know whose heart it has touched, and the distant expectation can't hold the lonely lovesickness.

The "......" flute stopped, but it was an unfinished movement.

This place is called "Jianning Peak" and is located on the east coast of Huai'an. The mountain peaks are thousands, such as the giant sword stretching straight out of the spiritual sky, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairy mountain, known as the reputation of the cliff of the east coast and the corner of the sea and sky. However, the cold wind on this peak is refreshing, so few people come up here to make it even more deserted. Because of the coldness, Yue Fan likes it very much.

At this time, he sat alone on the rocks of the mountain peak, wearing a gray-black hunting robe and swaying in the wind, elegant and lonely. Yue Fan put down his hands and gently put the bamboo flute into his arms. Looking quietly ahead, the white clouds floated by like the past, carrying her memories away.

Not far behind them, Tie Nan and Situ Yan gradually approached, silently watching Yue Fan's back, unwilling to disturb.

"Tie Nan, Brother Li's flute is so sad, it seems that he has a lot on his mind. However, why doesn't Brother Li blow every time he blows halfway?"

"Uh...... This, maybe in the later paragraphs, Brother Li won't blow it......"

"Hmph! nonsense......" Tie Nan's unsatisfactory explanation caused Situ Yan to roll his eyes for a while, but in his heart, he was a little more intimate and strange.

"Tie Nan is right, I won't ...... the second half of this song" Yue Fan cleaned up his mood and turned around and walked towards the two.

"No?!" Situ Yanqiao blushed and spat out her little tongue at Tie Nan embarrassedly.

The current Situ Yan is no longer the melancholy girl she used to be. In such a free life, she lost all her burdens and became more relaxed. In addition, Yue Fan used a silver needle to pass her acupoints once a day, relieving the pain of cold in her body, and even letting her out of the shadow in her heart.

Tie Nan looked at Yue Fan with a complicated expression and said, "Brother Li, do you think of Sister Xiaoya again?" Regarding Yue Fan's matter, Tie Nan had already inquired from Su Fanghao, so he knew Yue Fan's current mood very well.

Yue Fan nodded gloomily, his eyes full of sadness.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Situ Yan hurriedly diverted the topic and said, "Brother Li, it's not early now, Grandpa Su and the others are still waiting for us to eat at home...... Also, it's so cold here. ”

"Well, let's go back first. Yue Fan rubbed his shoulders and walked towards the bottom of the mountain with the two.

......

There is a narrow hidden valley at the foot of "Jianning Peak", which is named "Hidden Immortal", which means to escape from the world. Three days ago, in order to avoid trouble, Yue Fan and the others temporarily lived in the Hidden Immortal Valley under the arrangement of Ji Lao. Of course, due to various reasons, Yue Fan didn't let Shi Biyao follow him anymore, but just asked someone to bring a message back.

The Hidden Immortal Valley is extremely hidden, and the entrance is surrounded by traps and strange gate formations, and only the core personnel of the Divine Machine Pavilion know the way into the valley.

For the Qimen formation outside the Hidden Immortal Valley, it is also recorded in the "Book of Wonders" given by Bai Suyun to Yue Fan, which is one of the ancient strange formations, the "Taiqing Fantasy Array". This array is heavily defended and not attacked, and the illusion is used as the base of the formation is extremely wonderful, and it is difficult for those who enter it to break free from the invasion of illusion.

But if you want to lay down this array, you can't do it alone. From this, it is not difficult to see that the older generation of Shenji Pavilion has put a lot of effort into keeping this peaceful place.

......

Under Yue Fan's lead, the three of them easily avoided the mechanism formation...... Passing through the forest and mountain gaps, the front suddenly brightened. The four walls are towering but do not shade the light, the grass and trees stand on the flat terrain, and this is the "Hidden Immortal Valley".

It is more accurate to say that it is a valley than a small village outside the world. Because there are many thatched houses in the valley, which are specially used for the old people who have retired from the Shenji Pavilion to enjoy their old age. In order not to make the old people feel lonely, Shenji Pavilion also specially took in some orphans who had no relatives and no reason to live together in various parts of the world, which is really the best of both worlds. When you come in, you can see the joy and frolic here, giving people a harmonious and happy scene.

"Hehe~~ Little brother, are you back......"

"Brother Li is so ......"

"Brother Tie Nan, Sister Yan......"

Along the way, the elderly and children greeted Yue Fan and the three of them warmly, as if they were a family. Amorous, sad and ruthless, Yue Fan actually likes such a simple feeling, even if he is lonely......

Before they knew it, the three of them had reached the end of the valley, and the two huts in front of them were set up side by side, simple but neat. If you look up, it is the top of the "Sword Peak".

"Xiaofan, just in time for ......"

Seeing Yue Fan and the others coming, Ji Lao outside the thatched hut was overjoyed, and stepped forward and said, "We have received the golden needle and those medicinal materials you wanted......

Yue Fan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's hard work for Ji Lao and everyone." ”

"Where, it's hard to do this little thing, then the signboard of our Shenji Pavilion should have been torn down a long time ago...... Hehe!" Ji Lao laughed loudly. Indeed, although the Shenji Pavilion is not as big as the upstairs, it is not much worse.

"Let's go, let's get something to eat. ”
