Shao Yan also bowed his hand: "In Xia Shao Yan, I also heard that something happened here many years ago, and I came to investigate, and saw that this place was already barren and weed, and I felt the vicissitudes of the world in my heart, so I stayed here and wandered, so that Brother Zhou smiled." ”

"It turns out that Brother Shao is also an elegant person, disrespectful and disrespectful!" Zhou Hong gradually said busily.

"Brother and Tai, the master and servant, all the way, are they also here to pay their respects?" Shao Yan saw that Zhou Hong was gradually polite and polite, and he couldn't help but feel good, so he asked.

"Don't laugh at my brother, I'm not a local person, and my family is relatively solid, because I read "Xu Xiake's Travels", in order to be attracted, I think of the sages, so I have ambitions, and I also want to go all over the world's famous mountains and rivers, follow the steps of the sages, imitate the aspirations of the sages, and write a travel book of my own. Zhou Hong's eyes showed a determined gaze.

"Brother Tai Dazhi, Shao Yan wishes Brother Tai success!" Shao Yan congratulated him, Shao Yan didn't expect that he had traveled the world by pretending to be Xu Xiake, and he wrote his travelogue just to attract the attention of the powerful and celebrities in the mortal kingdom and find out some truths. I can't imagine that people with lofty ideals will imitate it, but if Zhou Hong gradually knew that the person in front of him was Xu Xiake back then, I don't know how he would feel.

"Thank you brother, I traveled here, I heard the legend of the change here, I came to see, as Brother Tai said, seeing this, I suddenly felt the vicissitudes of change. I thought that Brother Tai was related to this place, so I wanted to understand the situation, write a travel note, or increase my capital, Brother Tai is also a person who hangs on me, and it has nothing to do with it, but it is also a great pleasure to meet Brother Tai. It's almost noon, in my luggage, there is some food, and a gourd wine, why don't you sit on the ground and have a drink with your brother?" Zhou Hong gradually walked alone, and it was rare to meet a person who could talk, especially in this wilderness, so he became a friend and warmly invited Shao Yan.

Shao Yan is the body of the primordial god, and he doesn't need to eat or drink at all. And when he came out, except for hiding the Chengying Sword in the Yuan Shen, he didn't bring anything else, storage bags, spirit stones and magic weapons, with his current cultivation, he didn't meet a real person, and the other party wanted to have a spirit treasure, Shao Yan was not afraid of the other party, even if he met a real person with a spirit treasure, it was impossible to stay Shao Yan. However, the other party is a literati and elegant guest, Shao Yan has nothing to do, and he has not dealt with ordinary people for a long time, but he is also interested.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, I've heard some legends about this place, so it's better to talk about it while drinking. Shao Yan thanked him.

"Zhou Xing, find a flat place to spread the oilcloth, take a rest and eat here, and listen to Brother Shao tell the story of this place. Zhou Hong gradually instructed the servant Zhou Xing.

After a while, the oilcloth was laid, a roast chicken wrapped in lotus leaves, some cut beef, a few flatbreads, a gourd wine, and the three of them sat down, obviously, Zhou Hongjian did not regard Zhou Xing as a servant, probably for the convenience of carrying, the bowls in front of the three people were made of wood, Zhou Xing poured the wine in the three bowls, and the three of them talked while drinking.

"The village is officially said to be destroyed by the plague, there is another legend, the destruction of this village is related to the legendary immortal master, it is said that there was a demon was injured by an immortal master, fled in the wilderness, came here, in order to recuperate, it sucked away the spirit and soul of the villagers, causing a tragedy. But it was discovered by another immortal master, and he killed the demon, but the villagers could not be resurrected, so they cast a spell to turn the earth and bury the villagers, if you look carefully, you will also see the traces of the ground flipping, although many years have passed, the ground is different from ordinary villages. Shao Yan changed his name and told the truth, he wanted to borrow the other party's pen to pass on the truth of this matter, which could be regarded as an explanation to the villagers back then.

Zhou Hong's master and servant carefully observed, and sure enough, he found something unusual, and then Zhou Hongjian said: "It really makes sense, I will also record this legend in my travelogue, just like Mr. Xu Xiake recorded the legend of Xianshi in his travelogue back then." ”

Shao Yan smiled secretly in his heart, of course it makes sense, what I said is the truth, of course, I won't say this. Zhou Hong gradually told some interesting stories about the trip, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Zhou Xing packed up his things and was about to set off again, Shao Yan found that Zhou Hong's eyebrows were slightly gray, knowing that Zhou Hongjian had a difficulty in the near future, his heart moved, and it was fate to meet, so he helped you, and it was also considered to be a gift to you, Shao Yan quietly left a mark on Zhou Hongji's body, took a breath lightly, and buried a spell, Zhou Hongji's master and servant did not notice it.

The two sides parted, Shao Yan is currently going to the northeast, it seems that the two are going to the Longjiang River Basin, according to their direction, may go to Qianfeng Mountain, this is a group of mountains in the lower reaches of the Longjiang River, the area is not large, but the radius is more than 100 miles, but there are two Xiuzhen families of the Long family and the Jin family nearby, and there are some scattered cultivators, often come and go to Qianfeng Mountain, secular people often see monks flying with imperial weapons, and there are many legends about monks.

Shao Yan saw the two of them go away, and then glanced at this abandoned village, one step at a time, the mountains and rivers and the earth retreated like a streamer, Shao Yan had appeared on the rotten peach mountain outside Piaoxiang City, on the side of Shanyang, looking from a distance, you can still vaguely see the traces of the trees lodging after the thunder bead explosion, but up close, it is already a peach tree, it is not the season for the peach blossoms to bloom, the peach forest is lush, the raw materials of the Chengying Sword on Shao Yan's body are obtained from here, when the original duan xylophone was obtained from this mountain, it was sold to Shao Yan in the Piaoxiang City market. Therefore, Shao Yan refined the magic weapon during the foundation building period, which was the wisp of the law imprint obtained from the thunder tribulation and refining in the materials, and only then did he synthesize the magic weapon by chance.

Shao Yan came here, in addition to revisiting the old place and experiencing the original situation, it is also a kind of introspection, but the time span is longer, from another point of view, in the case of different moods, investigating what he did at the beginning is also helpful for what he did in the future, it is a kind of heart refining; The Chengying Sword is Shao Yan's earliest magic weapon, and he has been following Shao Yan, and after Shao Yan can't help but recuperate, he has made great progress in all aspects, but it is only a magic weapon, and this sword Shao Yan has never added other materials, and Shao Yan does not want to add other materials to destroy the self-contained masculinity of the peach wood, and it is best to find other materials with the same fate to further improve it. Shao Yan thought of the origin of this wood, when this tree became a demon and crossed the catastrophe, it failed.

Plants become demons are more difficult than animals, but there are also their unique places, animals become demon beasts, not to transform into a form, will not be transformed into a benevolent form, as long as the plant has a spiritual sense, the demon pill is formed, although it can not be transformed, but there is an animal has never had the ability, that is, its spiritual consciousness is transformed, but the illusion of the benevolent form of other animals, in a certain range of activities away from the body, although not a shape, it can be considered to be able to move within a certain range.

Moreover, the root system of plants is huge, and if the situation is not right during the tribulation, some spiritual consciousness will escape into the roots with the essence to hide, that is, the spiritual consciousness is destroyed by the heavenly tribulation, and the essence is often left deep underground. Shao Yan came here for the purpose of looking for this kind of thing, if he could find it, the Chengying Sword had a good chance of advancing to the spirit treasure.

Shao Yan stood on the top of the mountain, feeling the most fundamental breath of the Chengying Sword in his body, his divine thoughts enveloped the whole mountain, and compared with the breath of the Chengying Sword in the hundreds of millions of breaths, this is a huge work, so he screened for three days, and finally captured that wisp of breath, but he couldn't laugh or cry, because this wisp of breath was captured in the first day, and he felt a little plausible, so he ignored it at the time, and it took two more days to find out that he was negligent at that time.

This breath is in the southeast side of the mountain, Shao Yan looked for the divine mind to find there, there is no trace on the ground, the soil is two feet down, found the charred black stump, and then down is the huge root system, the breath is gradually obvious, at this time Shao Yan no longer doubts, chased down, about eight zhang from the ground, found a nucleus-like light cluster in the divine thought, the surface is covered with peach pit-like light lines, Shao Yan knows that this is what he is looking for.

He is now the body of the primordial god, the soil does not pose an obstacle to him, and he did not even perform the art of earth escape, he disappeared on the ground, the person has come to the core, the root of the tree is here, it is relatively thin, but here it is a protrusion, Shao Yan Guanghua flashed, gently cut off the upper and lower ends, and easily put it into his sleeve. As soon as the object was harvested, the roots of the trees immediately lost their luster and had only a glimmer of life.

Shao Yan reappeared on the ground, this place is over, Shao Yan is not in a hurry to sacrifice, this place is close to the Fragrance Immortal City, there are many monks, and if it is refined into a spiritual treasure, there will be a catastrophe, which will definitely attract a lot of monks, although Shao Yan is not afraid, but he does not want to cause trouble.

Shao Yan took another step, the mountains and rivers retreated like a streamer again, Shao Yan appeared in the mountain temple where he had stayed for a few months to meditate, it was already dilapidated, but now it has completely collapsed, time is more powerful than anything else, Shao Yan looked at the dilapidated scene in front of him, he was touched, and came to the backyard in the broken wall, the original roofs of the two houses had collapsed, only half of the four walls were left, the door and door frame had decayed, Shao Yan entered it, but could not settle down, the bed had also decayed, weeds and miscellaneous trees had overgrown, under the roots of the tree, the rotten bed wood could be faintly seen, Shao Yan sighed and retreated。

After looking around, he found a place paved with stone slabs in the courtyard, and the sleeves of his robe were raised, and a gust of wind passed, cleaned up, and he began to refine the nucleus into the Chengying Sword.

Zhou Hong's master and servant said goodbye to Shao Yan, and went all the way to the northeast, to the official straight road, also rented a carriage, after two days, they came to Qianfeng Mountain, this mountain has thousands of peaks, the scenery is beautiful, there are immortals from time to time, it is also a place where many literati and ink writers like to visit, and there are literati who come here from time to time.

Its main peak is called a pillar peak, such as a pillar of optimus, there are stone steps spiraling up, the top of this peak has nearly an acre of flat land, all are stony, people are on it, the surrounding peaks, take in the bottom of the eye. From time to time, there are clouds and mist, and there is a saying that "a pillar penetrates into the white cloud sky".

Zhou Hong's master and servant climbed to the top of the peak with some breath, although Zhou Honggradually was a literati, but he usually practiced martial arts to enhance his physique, and he was good at walking in the world to protect himself, so it was such a precipitous peak that he was a little out of breath. The two of them only brought some belongings, and their luggage was left in the inn at the foot of the mountain.

The two of them looked into the distance, swaying their chests and clouds, and the mountains bowed their heads, and they couldn't help but feel proud in their hearts. The mountains and rivers in the distance are as if in front of them, as if they are within reach, and occasionally in the distant sky, the goshawk skimmes the clouds, and the white clouds are leisurely, making people worry about disappearing.

The two of them were looking at the mountain scenery, and the sound of breaking the sky in the sky sounded, and the two of them looked for prestige, and the five rays of light rushed over.

"Immortal Master!" this thought came to the two of them together, and they heard that there are often immortal masters haunted here, and it is not true. In the blink of an eye, the sky was near, something was wrong, a white light in front of him fell crookedly, and a seriously injured monk fell beside the two.

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and before they came back to their senses, the four rays of light behind them had stopped at a height of several zhang, and the four monks stepped on the brilliance.

"Boss, there are two mortals here!," said one of the blackfriars.

"Kill them together, so as not to ruin the reputation of our four heroes of Longjiang!" said a yellow-clothed monk coldly.

A white light struck the two of them, and before they could get close, the bone-chilling cool air had already invaded their bodies. The two of them were desperate for a while, and they couldn't resist the immortal master.

At this critical juncture of life and death, Zhou Hong's clothes gradually fluttered, a faint clear light flashed, and it expanded outward, and the white brilliance touched the clear light, and suddenly lost its brilliance, turning into a ruler short sword and falling to the ground. A pale cyan wind was like a huge wave, blowing in all directions, and there was only a light breeze around Zhou Hongji.

This is exactly what Shao Yan left behind when he snorted lightly.
