Chapter 16: The Secret of Seven Years
Ever since Yi Xiaotian had an epiphany by chance and entered the cultivation threshold, on the one hand, he has been cultivating more and more ruthlessly every day, and the mysterious illusion in his mind has always appeared from time to time, revealing some cultivation methods. On the other hand, Yi Xiaotian never dared to forget the instructions of the Ghost Lingzi at the beginning, and did not dare to expose the exercises he had cultivated, because although it was only one side, the adventures in the Nine Old Caves were always vivid, and the mental illusions that appeared from time to time were also real and pointed to him, so he naturally had to believe in the words of the Ghost Lingzi and the legend of the Nine Elders.
In order to hide the secret, Yi Xiaotian has been day and night for several months, and every day during the day he looks like an ordinary mountain village child, playing with Wang Erdan and other children all over the mountains and fields all day long, and occasionally helping Uncle Li with labor, hunting, and winemaking. It's just that once it gets late at night every day, Yi Xiaotian will quietly jump out of the village, find a deep mountain and dense forest, and practice the nameless exercises in the fantasy realm in his mind.
Just like Yi Xiaotian, an ordinary child from a mountain village, who had some secret adventures that he didn't know whether it was good or bad, he also practiced alone night after night on that Hong Chunping. The Emei faction is now the first to cultivate the true famous sect today, there are countless miraculous skills, and the major elders are also famous in Kyushu, and their cultivation is extremely high, and a group of young disciples have the best resources, and they are all cultivating hard, and they want to become the best among people.
Although Wen Youer and Xiao Yun entered the Emei Sect at the same time, it has been nearly a year so far, although Xiao Yun is slightly older than Wen You'er, and has learned a lot of folk kung fu since childhood, but after getting started, she was quickly caught up by Wen You'er's little sister who got along with her day and night, and even gradually surpassed herself.
Although Xiao Yun was born in a big family and has some young ladies with a temper, since she entered the Emei Sect and worshiped Master Shuiyi, she has always been well-behaved and modest, and she has always worked hard in her cultivation. It's just that there is a stubbornness in his bones that does not admit defeat, but it is the same as Yi Xiaotian, in order not to be left behind by the little junior sister who seems to be lazy and casual, Xiao Yun doesn't know when he started, and he also sneaked out of Qingyin Pavilion in the dead of night every night, looking for a quiet place where no one was quiet, and desperately practicing all kinds of Emei exercises passed down by his master.
This night, Xiao Yun started from the pool under the Niuxin Pavilion, all the way up against the water of the Heilongjiang River, the left and right hands of the law seal frequently, so fast that the fingers into the wind, you can see the afterimage, the stream under the feet sometimes into ice, sometimes into fog, sometimes into countless water needles and arrows in all directions, sometimes into several water columns rising into the sky...... Treading water all the way to the Baiyun Gorge, I felt a little tired, I took the Dharma seal in my hand and twisted my neck up and down, left and right, and in a blink of an eye, I could see that there seemed to be a black shadow shaking in the stream not far ahead, because the water vapor and moonlight in this canyon were hazy, and I couldn't see clearly.
Look at the shaking black shadow, it seems to have a head and hands, hooked waist and hunchback, as if sneakily fishing for something in the stream. Xiao Yun frowned, the more she looked at the black shadow, the more it looked like a huge monkey, as if she was fishing for fish and shrimp in the stream? The hatred of being bullied by the monkeys and almost falling off the cliff one day a few months ago was still fresh in her memory, and inexplicable anger suddenly surged into her heart. "Hmph, look at how Miss Ben beat you all over the ground today!" Xiao Yun has made great progress in cultivation now, and she is naturally full of confidence in cleaning up a brute. Immediately, the two fingers of the right hand re-knotted the law seal, sucked up a thin stream of water, with water as ink and paper out of thin air, and quickly drew a formation diagram in front of him, and finally poked the sword finger in the center of the array, and in the stream under his feet, a water column of the thickness of the basin snorted and sucked up, and after passing through the water to draw the array, it condensed into a long ice pick, the cold edge was fierce, and the lightning swept out, stabbing towards the black shadow in front.
The ice pick hit the target in the blink of an eye, and a "plop" sound of water was heard from afar, and the black shadow fell into the stream in response, and there was no movement. Xiao Yun clapped happily, jumped up happily, and then took a leap forward, eager to see the miserable appearance of the beast.
Xiao Yun slapped his horse and rushed to the place where the black shadow was before, looked into the water, and immediately panicked, and screamed: "Ah!", what he saw in his eyes, where were there any monkeys and beasts, it was obvious that Yi Xiaotian was lying upright in the stream with his back facing the sky, and half of the ice pick was lying on his belly with cold light.
"Yi Xiaotian!ah!" Xiao Yun was shocked, regretful and afraid, never imagined that the black shadow in the torrent of Heilongjiang in the middle of the night could be a person, and it was none other than Yi Xiaotian. Stretched out his hand and touched Yi Xiaotian's chest, there was no heartbeat, and in his anxiety, countless thoughts turned around in Xiao Yun's heart: Hurry up and bring it back to Qingyin Pavilion and let the master see if there is any help? No...... Quietly dig a hole and bury it? No...... No, don't do it, don't pretend to be on vacation, don't know about it? No......
Anxious and afraid, Xiao Yun's feet were weak, and she sat in the cold stream, but beads of sweat kept falling on her forehead. After sitting like this, I don't know how many times, Xiao Yun finally had a certain number in his heart: if he killed the mountain people by mistake, he will definitely be punished by the sect, even if he is expelled from the sect, it is completely possible...... Yi Xiaotian, today's incident was purely accidental, although you also saved my life, but...... Yi Xiaotian, don't blame me...... After making up her mind, Xiao Yun forcibly cheered up, turned over, grabbed Yi Xiaotian's arms and dragged him deep into the water.
"Hmm......" Yi Xiaotian's mouth sounded, his arms tightened, Xiao Yun screamed in shock, and his hands loosened, Yi Xiaotian, who was originally dragged out of the water by Xiao Yun above his chest, suddenly completely submerged in the water, and with an underwater undercurrent, he was suddenly washed into the deep water, and he was about to be swept away. Xiao Yun also reacted very quickly, came back to her senses in an instant, and rushed into the water with a dive, narrowly grabbing Yi Xiaotian's trouser belt, but the incident happened suddenly, the undercurrent was turbulent, and Xiao Yun had no roots on the soles of her feet, and was dragged by Yi Xiaotian into the deep water.
After all, Xiao Yun's qualifications are far higher than those of ordinary girls, she is not shocked, she holds her breath underwater, silently recites her mind, and is about to perform the method of water control, her body is about to move, but the surrounding waters are suddenly changing, and she is rolling and rolling in all directions, forming a spherical airbag, wrapping the two of them, losing the buoyancy of the water, Xiao Yun and Yi Xiaotian fell to the bottom of the water, and Yi Xiaotian was also "oops" woke up with a bang, took a big breath, and saw the scene in front of him in the big bubble under the water, not very surprised, but was frightened half to death by Xiao Yun's inexplicable sudden appearance.
"Why are you back here?" Yi Xiaotian still maintained his instinctive fear of Xiao Yun, crawling a few steps back from the underwater ground, keeping a distance from Xiao Yun.
"What are you afraid of?!Miss Ben won't eat you again!" Xiao Yun saw that Yi Xiaotian was fine, he must not be able to die, and a big stone fell in his heart, he scolded, looking at Yi Xiaotian's fear of himself, he laughed out loud, then put away his smile, looked at this magical big bubble seriously, and asked Yi Xiaotian again: "What's going on?"
Yi Xiaotian naturally knew it, and subconsciously touched his chest, and the two beads hidden in the placket were trembling slightly at this time. "I, how do I know? I want to ask you why I'm unconscious under the water, cut. Yi Xiaotian deliberately avoided Xiao Yun's question, but with a panicked look on his face, the word "lying" was clearly written.
"Hmph" Xiao Yun didn't ask anymore, thinking that no matter what, she had to get out of the water first, so she took two steps forward, grabbed Yi Xiaotian's arm, and rushed upwards to rush back to the ground with Yi Xiaotian. "Boom!" there was a muffled sound, and the two of them hit the edge of the bubble at the same time, and they were bounced off alive, and their heads hurt.
"Ouch, are you crazy?!" Yi Xiaotian, who was bounced back to the bottom of the water, hugged his head and scolded.
Xiao Yun also rubbed her forehead, glared at Yi Xiaotian and shouted, "Yi Xiaotian! What the hell is this!" As he spoke, he reached out to Yi Xiaotian's chest, and only then did Yi Xiaotian's subconscious touch of his chest, it turned out that it did not escape Xiao Yun's eyes at all.
Yi Xiaotian hurriedly dodged sideways: "Don't do it! Hmph, if you want to go out, follow me!" After that, Xiao Yun didn't move anymore, Yi Xiaotian walked towards the shore under the water like an ordinary walk, Xiao Yun followed silently, observing the four directions, and found that the huge bubble seemed to be centered on Yi Xiaotian, moving with Yi Xiaotian's movement, always blocking the water from the outside world, which was really strange. The water of the Heilongjiang stream is not wide, and after dozens of steps, the two of them poked their heads out of the water, and the huge bubbles also disappeared out of thin air.
The two of them came ashore and climbed a boulder, Xiao Yun formed an incomprehensible formation again, ignited a fiery red flame, and sat on the edge of the flame by himself and roasted. Yi Xiaotian shivered a few times, and wanted to lean over to roast the fire, but he couldn't pull it off, so he sat in the other corner of the boulder by himself, silent. After a while, Xiao Yun actually took the initiative to open her mouth: "Come over and bake." Yi Xiaotian pretended not to hear, Xiao Yun raised his voice and shouted again: "Yi Xiaotian, I'll let you come over!" Yi Xiaotian moved his butt worriedly, came to the side of the flame, and sat face to face with Xiao Yun.
"Yi Xiaotian, let me ask you, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Is there something that is not glamorous? Can I tell you, this is Emei Mountain, where the Emei sect, the largest sect today, is located, if you do some shady deeds, my Emei disciple will never let you look good! Also, what is hidden in your clothes?" Xiao Yun asked coldly with an expressionless face, the firelight swayed, shining on Xiao Yun's heroic white face, white and red, a few strands of wet hair stuck to the slender neck, and from time to time a drop of water slid down the skin, cold and beautiful.
Yi Xiaotian raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Yun, he was in a trance, and he was drunk by Xiao Yun again, so he came back to his senses and replied, "I'm here...... What's the matter with you?!" Yi Xiaotian didn't know how to lie, so he simply didn't answer, and put on a rogue expression that you have the ability to beat me, and I won't say anything about hitting me. Unfortunately, during the conversation, Yi Xiaotian suddenly felt a heat all over his body, a thick black fog appeared up and down Zhou's body, his hair and clothes were completely dried in an instant, and when the black fog dissipated, Yi Xiaotian saw Xiao Yun's face clearly, it was already obvious with indescribable anger, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were like torches, and he had an insight that was very inconsistent with his grade.
"Yi Xiaotian, you think about it yourself, did you tell me, or will my master ask you?" Xiao Yun's face became colder, and her voice became colder.
Yi Xiaotian's heart fluttered wildly, and after thinking for a while, he looked at Xiao Yun's eyes and said in a low voice: "I am quietly cultivating the nameless exercises left to me by my father. ”
"Daddy's legacy, nameless exercises, you lie!" Xiao Yun pressed step by step.
"It's true, these two beads are the relics left to me by my mother, and there is that exercise in this bead, only I can see it......" Yi Xiaotian replied, while taking out the two water-avoiding beads from his arms and handing them to Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun took the two pearls, put them in her hand and stroked them lightly a few times, the touch was smooth and delicate, but the texture was superior, as for the others, I couldn't see why. Suddenly, the two pearls spun rapidly in Xiao Yun's palm, Yi Xiaotian saw this, and hurriedly jumped off the big stone to dodge, and for some reason, Xiao Yun was re-watered by the huge jet of water that suddenly sprayed out......
After the two beads finished spitting water, Xiao Yun was only dumbfounded, wiped off the water droplets on her face, jumped off the big stone and landed in front of Yi Xiaotian, grabbed Yi Xiaotian's palm, and handed the two beads back. With a somewhat dazed expression, he said to Yi Xiaotian: "I believe you ......"
"That's my biggest secret...... Thou shalt draw a hook with me, and thou shalt not tell anyone else. Yi Xiaotian carefully put away the two pearls and put them in his arms.
"Hmm!" Xiao Yun nodded, and asked again, "Do you quietly run out to cultivate every night?"
"Hmm...... I guess. Yi Xiaotian replied.
Xiao Yun stretched out her little finger, hooked Yi Xiaotian's little finger, and pulled hard: "Pull the hook, I won't reveal your biggest secret, hehe, I'll also tell you a little secret of mine, I also secretly run out to practice every night!
"Ah?......" Yi Xiaotian muttered in his heart, and finally made up a lie to pass the test, which one is this, my God. I can't help but think of what Uncle Li often said to Aunt Li: "You women, this thing, it's really uncertain, I can't understand it, I can't understand it......"
For the next seven years, Yi Xiaotian and Xiao Yun practiced together secretly late every night without a single break......
