Chapter Seventy-Seven: Confusion
Ye Hao was alone in the lonely peak, frightened, thinking about the matter of Fang Cai, but he couldn't figure it out, and he had to hold back his doubts.
At this moment, the Wind Bead was hidden in the body, and I didn't know if it was considered to be the completion of the preliminary sacrifice, so I wanted to try it.
"Disease!" Ye Hao recited words in his mouth according to the method taught by his master, and then shouted loudly, took a step, and walked in a circle on the lonely peak.
There was no change at first, but when he raised his speed to the peak, a colorful aura emanated from his body, and he jumped under the cliff and fell to the bottom of the abyss.
Ye Hao was shocked in his heart, but he didn't expect that an invisible force emanating from his body would increase his speed instantly, causing him to lose his feet and step down the cliff.
Just when he was at a loss, the colorful power in his body suddenly increased, and the body that fell to the bottom of the cliff seemed to be much lighter, fluttering like tidbits.
Ye Hao straightened up in the void, although he was still falling, but it was not as fast as before, and he could see the trees and flowers on the edge of the cliff and the green vines of the mountain branches in front of him, Ye Hao was overjoyed, stretched out his hand and grabbed it forward, and then climbed on top of a prominent branch, and when he stabilized his body and adjusted his breathing, he let go again and let his body fall.
The colorful power around his body was scattered, as if he was imprisoning the flow of air around him, taking off the rapid falling, and suddenly felt that his body was as light as a swallow, and after falling for a while, he reached out and grabbed a mountain vine, adjusted his breath, and let go again.
In this way, after going back and forth more than ten times, Ye Hao had fallen to the ground from the top of the thousand-zhang high cliff unscathed.
Looking up at Gu Feng, he was no longer out of sight, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and then he realized what a rare treasure his master had given him.
"Disease!" Ye Hao recited the mantra again, and the colorful light around his body became more vigorous, and he rushed out like a gale, and there was no figure in a blink of an eye, only the flowers and plants in the mountains swayed violently.
It didn't take long for Ye Hao to arrive in front of Tianye City, he hurriedly recited the trick to put away the colorful power, and his body immediately froze, and the gust of wind that came with him actually blew the pedestrians staggering, and their expressions were shocked, looking at him like a demon.
"I'm sorry" Ye Hao smiled helplessly and entered the city like a smoke.
Ye Hao walked along the avenue in the city, walked past the statue of the Emperor Tianye, walked through the bustling market, and walked across the arched bridge on the Dayan River.
When he returned to the Fulai Inn, he saw that many disciples of Yinjianchi who came with him were packing cars in front of the inn, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Has Senior Brother Yinan ever come back?"
Seeing that it was Ye Hao, the Sword Drawing Pool disciple hurriedly replied: "Senior Brother Ye Hao, you are back, we have been looking for you for most of the night, Senior Brother Yi Nan is about to die, he is in the lobby of the inn." ”
When Ye Hao heard this, he knew that Yi Nan was fine, so he put his mind at ease, thanked the senior brother, and walked into the inn.
In the inn, Yi Nan was checking the account books in front of a big table of eight immortals, and several disciples gathered around him, and when he saw Ye Hao come in, Yi Nan stood up "poofed" and walked over and hugged him into his arms.
"My mother, fortunately you came back safely, and it scared me to death. Yi Nan let go of Ye Hao, looking excited.
"Go, come back to the house with me. Yi Nan ignored the stunned eyes of the other disciples, pulled Ye Hao and hurried back to the house.
After entering the room, Yi Nan closed the door and asked, "Senior brother, how did you escape from the slaughter master?"
Ye Hao sighed: "It's a long story, I was chased and killed by the old man in gray, and I encountered a sneak attack by four slaughter masters, and I was already hopeless to get out, but fortunately I met a woman in black to save me, so I came back with my life, Senior Brother Yinan, how did you get out?"
Yinan said happily: "Senior brother is really blessed and fateful. Last night, after I set off the thunder and split the spirit tree, I sneaked into a pond, the spirit wood thought to be the lifeblood of the Tu family, the Tu family was busy fighting the fire, I took the opportunity to escape, and the Tu family did not chase after it. ”
"After leaving the slaughterhouse, I went with my sword, but I couldn't find you everywhere, so I went back to the inn in a hurry, and asked the brothers to go out to look for you, but there was still no news, and I was afraid that I would miss the purchase, so I had to divide half of the people to find you, and half of the people to purchase rice and grain materials...... I'm glad you're back, otherwise I really don't know what to do. ”
Ye Hao also laughed when he heard this: "Did the senior brother go to the Golden Phoenix to invite merit?"
Yinan's face turned red when he heard this: "I only want to find you in my heart, how can I have the heart to go to Fengluanfang...... When you come back safely, my hanging heart will be put down, and after a while I will count the account books and supplies, and we will go to her together. ”
Ye Hao smiled: "Senior brother, you can go by yourself later, I just want to sleep well now, and I don't want to ask anything else." Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and asked, "Have you ever told the senior brother of Baige Hall about the fire sect demon in the slaughtering family?"
Yi Nan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I have contacted the senior brothers of Baige Hall and told them the details, and they have already reported to the head of Baige Hall with the Thousand Miles Transmission Spirit Rune." ”
Ye Hao put his mind at ease, stretched his waist and said, "Senior brother, I'll sleep first, I've been tossing all night, and I'm a little tired." ”
Yinan looked at him and said with concern: "Senior brother, is the injury on your body important?"
Ye Hao smiled: "It's just a flesh injury, it's not tight." So saying, he walked over to the bed and plunged into it.
Yinan asked helplessly: "Senior brother, are you really not going to Fengluanfang with me?"
Ye Hao closed his eyes and waved his hand: "Yanfu is better left to Senior Brother to enjoy by himself, I just want to sleep now." ”
Yi Nan shrugged, no longer bothered him, and went out of the house on his own, closing the door.
Ye Hao was indeed tired, and fell asleep after a while.
Speaking of Yi Nan, he came to the lobby of the inn, calculated the account books with the brothers, counted the purchased and missing materials, and instructed everyone to continue to procure.
In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon, and Yi Nan finally cleaned up the things in front of him, and then happily went to Fengluanfang.
Along the way, I thought about the pretty appearance of the golden phoenix, and remembered her promise last night, and my heart was even more scratched, and I couldn't wait to see the beautiful woman immediately, and ask for merit and reward.
When I arrived at Fengluanfang, I was told to see the golden phoenix, but I didn't expect to pounce, and I waited until the proprietress of Fengluanfang came out to meet in person, and I didn't know when the golden phoenix had gone out and didn't return.
Yi Nan was empty and had nowhere to put it, so he had to go back to the Fulai Inn in a huff.
Early in the morning of the second day, Yi Nan took Ye Hao to Fengluanfang again, but still didn't see the golden phoenix.
Ye Hao was puzzled: "The Golden Phoenix knew that we were going to help him destroy the spirit tree of the slaughtering family, and it stands to reason that we should wait for us to come back, why did he go out and never return? Could it be that he deliberately avoided it......?"
"No......" Although Yinan said this, he had already doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to believe it.
"Senior brother, why don't we sneak into the boudoir of the Golden Phoenix and take a look, won't everything be understood. Ye Hao reminded.
Yi Nan felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't think of any other way, so he said helplessly: "It's just like this." ”
The two turned to the no-man's corner, flew up to the outer edge of the attic of Fengluanfang, went all the way down the eaves to the back, found a room with a window and jumped in, and then sorted out their thoughts, and quietly dived towards the boudoir of the golden phoenix.
Fortunately, this is the boudoir of the back house of the woman in Fengluanfang, but there is no one, the two of them saw that the room was empty, and the golden phoenix was really not there.
Yi Nan's mood is extremely complicated, both hope that she is there, she can see the beauty, but she hopes that she is not there, so as to eliminate the feeling of being deceived in her heart, and now she sees that the room is empty, and there is no trace of the beauty, and she can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It seems that Phoenix didn't deliberately avoid us, maybe there was something urgent to go out. Yinan sighed.
Ye Hao saw that he was in a trance, so he had to persuade: "Senior brother, you often come to Tianye City, there will definitely be a chance to meet in the future, and there is no need to rush for a while." ”
"Well, I know, I'll leave her a note. After Yi Nan finished speaking, he walked to the square table behind the screen, found pen and ink, and wrote the words "Fortunately, the spirit tree has been destroyed, temporarily return to the thunder, and see you in the future", and put it in a conspicuous position on the table.
After that, the two opened the window of the room and went out through the window.
The two of them had their own thoughts in their hearts, and they were sullen along the way, and when they returned to the Fulai Inn, Yi Nan and the other disciples were busy purchasing the remaining supplies, while Ye Hao went to the city to wander alone.
He walked from the east of the city to the west of the city, and from the south of the city to the north of the city, taking in the prosperous scenery of Tianye City along the way, and reveling in the beautiful and lively free time.
Eventually, his footsteps stopped in front of the white jade statue of Emperor Tianye. Looking at the heroic appearance of the immortal bones of the Tianye Emperor, and thinking of the story of the Three Sages of Shenzhou told by the old patriarch, I couldn't help but cross the long river and recall the heroic deeds of the Three Sages era.
Alas, at that time, it was also such a moment, the Demon Sect caused chaos in Shenzhou, but the three saints of Shenzhou joined forces to eliminate demons and finally turned the tide. If I have the ability of theirs, I will definitely do the same, so as to live up to the heroic bones of the men in Shenzhou.
Ye Hao sighed in his heart, but he felt even more helpless, even if he had the heart, but how could he be powerless, when he saw Tan Qianshan in Tufu that night, he really wanted to rush up and end his life, in order to comfort the soul of the fourth and fifth uncles in the sky, but unfortunately his mana was low, and he couldn't give birth to a trace of courage to fight for his life......
"Emperor Tianye, if you have a spirit in the sky, please bless me Ye Hao to break the seal in his body as soon as possible, learn the immortal method, and avenge the death of the Lin family!" Ye Hao prayed silently in his heart.
Seeing that the hour was noon, and it was time to make an appointment with Yi Nan to go back, Ye Hao no longer stayed, and turned back to the Fulai Inn.
He didn't forget that his uncle Shangguan Yun asked him to send a letter to the Tu family, but he just thought that he and Yi Nan had just destroyed the spirit tree of the Tu family, and he was afraid that he would be recognized if he went to deliver the letter at this moment, so he simply took leave from his uncle, and after purchasing materials, he could go back to Linjia Village to visit his relatives, and he might as well return to Tianye City after visiting his relatives, at that time, after a few days, the chance of the Tu family recognizing him would become very small.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and went back.
At this time, the convoy of Yinjian Pool has been assembled in front of the inn, and all the materials have been purchased and loaded, and they can set off to and from Jilei Mountain after the final inventory of Yinan.
After Ye Hao came back, he helped the senior brothers count the goods together, and it was completed in less than half an hour.
Yinan waved his hand and said, "It's time to go." ”
The convoy full of supplies slowly pulled out, once again attracting the attention of the city.
Yi Nan's eyes were cast in the direction of Fengluanfang, and his eyes were complicated and difficult to understand.
Ye Hao walked with his head down, but he was thinking of the words of the black-clothed masked woman, thinking that the world had fallen into a catastrophe, and his mood was not as happy as when he came.
The convoy went all the way to the west and marched out of Tianye City.
Ye Hao saw that Yinan was sullen all the way, so he walked to his side and asked, "Senior Brother Yinan, are you still thinking about the Golden Phoenix?"
Yinan smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I am in a somewhat complicated mood at the moment, thinking back and forth along the way, thinking about not all the people of the Golden Phoenix, but a little confused about the whole thing......"
Ye Haoqi said: "Senior brother, don't you think there is something wrong with this matter?"
Yi Nan nodded and said: "Yes, I think it is quite unusual to run this matter through the front and back, first of all, if our parents and brothers were killed, how could we not go to the murderer to take revenge, but only against a spirit tree?"
Ye Hao also wondered when he heard it, thinking in his heart that after Linjia Village was attacked by the Lihuo Sect, his hatred for the Lihuo Sect was monstrous, and he wanted to kill all the people from the Lihuo Sect, how could he ever think of going over to find the baby of the reincarnation of the demon king to take revenge, and compare his heart to his heart, if the father of the golden phoenix was really killed by the slaughtering family, then how could he only pin his hatred on a spirit tree, this is indeed a puzzling thing.
"Secondly, on the day we went to Tufu, we happened to see someone from the Fire Sect, but after we succeeded, we couldn't find the Golden Phoenix...... All these connections made me feel like I was being toyed with...... It was only because I had always admired her in my heart, and because she pleaded bitterly, that I was confused for a moment that I agreed to this request, and now when I calm down and think about it, I find that the whole thing is really suspicious...... I think I'm a shrewd and clear person, otherwise my master wouldn't have asked me to be in charge of this task of purchasing materials, but I never wanted to be deceived by a woman's clever words, I'm really ashamed......" Yinan said this, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Ye Hao was shocked in his heart, secretly thinking that the whole process was indeed intriguing, and he couldn't help but say: "Could it be that the golden phoenix has other plans......?
Yi Nan frowned and said, "Very likely...... Alas, I don't have time to confront her now, so I have to wait until the next time I go to Tianye City to ask her for clarification. ”
Ye Hao's heart was heavy for a while, secretly thinking that although the outside world was novel, it was also full of dangers, he never thought that a peerless beauty like the Golden Phoenix would hide his scheming, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of hesitation and confusion about the world outside Jilei Mountain, as well as a sense of fear of the unknown.
