Jie Yan stretched out his hand, covered his mouth and chuckled a few times.
"How could it be? This is not a reward. Even if I really kill someone, the Zuojimen and the donor can still tell who did it. They just want to collect the body and the reward will not reach my hand. Okay, Sister is tired from playing today, you can go away."
This sounds unpleasant, but the content is indeed true. Thinking about it this way, the initial targets of these monsters might be Shi Wuqi and Mu Wan. The four people stared at each other. Everyone had a lot to say, but the enemy in front of them was more important. But when they turned around, there were no traces of where they had stood to relieve the smoke, just like when the two monsters evacuated.
"There are only three points in using a sword: strength, sword, and sword skills. Ah Luan does not account for the first two, but I found that her sword skills just now are indeed extraordinary. Her way of holding the sword is unnatural, and generally speaking, she cannot use it. Energetic."
"Well, that's what the knifemaker taught me... He said this is more suitable for me."
Shanhai took the sword in Aluan's hand and inspected it carefully. Except for some slight grinding marks, the blade had not become dull. She didn't have much strength and spiritual power, and Shan Hai was a little confused.
"I was just concentrating on dealing with Jie Yan and didn't pay much attention to your swordsmanship..." He looked around at the gravel on the ground, "But what is the name of the move you used? I never knew you had it before. Such ability."
Dai Luan still wanted to explain something. She took back the sword and looked up at the mountains and sea. His eyes were a little complicated, a little doubtful, a little... strange.
"Who is that swordsmith?" Mu Wan asked.
"...It's been too long. I was very young at the time and I don't remember. And in my impression, he didn't seem to have a name. I never remember how anyone called him."
"How can a person have no name..." Mu Wan frowned.
"Don't the Six Paths of Impermanence have no names?" Shi Wuqi continued.
Speaking of which, several people seemed to have the answer in their minds. As for the swordsmith, there is indeed such a person in the Six Paths of Impermanence, and Shi Wuqi even mentioned it.
Fusong Fengdai·Shui Wujun was a knife maker during his lifetime. But no one remembers his name, not even himself. Since becoming impermanent, Yama demons have taken back their human names. And Shui Wujun, although he is a sword forger, is proficient in all the weapons he forged, and created his own six-path sword technique with the last sword. He was also the one who struck Kanna-kun's pair of invincible and invincible scimitars.
They looked at Aluan at the same time, and she felt confused. It seemed that she really didn't know anything about this, so they didn't plan to ask further questions. Thinking about what to do now is the most important thing.
"How to go now?" Shi Wuqi asked Shanhai. He looked at Shan Hai's reaction, but couldn't read anything from that layer of skin. He was always unhappy, but based on his understanding of Taoist Master Lin, even if he knew that his apprentice had such extraordinary courage and ability, he still wouldn't rest assured, and he would still treat her as a little girl from the past.
Probably...preferably.
"Gaoyue-kun once said that if we want to find Wanguishi, we should continue to go east."
Mu Wan sighed: "Can you still believe what that woman said?"
"I think there is no need for her to lie to us at this point."
"Shan Hai is right. Almost all of Gaoyue-kun's forces are Gu insect monsters, and Wanguizhi is also involved with them. Gaoyue-kun learned about this a long time ago. When I talked with her, she also She is indeed a little worried. She should be expecting us to find her back."
Mu Wan remained silent and looked to the south. This road was trampled out of the grassland by caravans, and the trees had become sparse. The road leads to an endless distance, with no end in sight, but the terrain rises slightly, and in the distance is a vast grassland.
"The road to the east is impossible without horses." Dai Luan looked over there.
Including Miss Qi, it would be unrealistic for the five of them to rely solely on the Tengu. Horses are very important, but the accident happened so quickly, and they were not prepared at all when they escaped. But it was already a long way from renting a house, and Shan Hai was hesitating whether he should go back and bring the horse over, and take a look at the safety of the Ye brothers and sisters.
"They must be fine. If we go back, we may cause trouble for them. Not only Qingluya, but the entire Qinglize is Gaoyue-kun's territory. Even if she has no ill intentions towards us, she still condones the people under her command to do evil. .”
Mu Wan rolled his eyes and seemed irritated, but he didn't say anything. Shanhai looked at her, then at Shi Wuqi, and sighed softly.
"Did you quarrel again?"
"...It's a long story, I'll tell you later." Shi Wuqi waved his hand, indicating that he wouldn't mention it for now.
"What should I do with my medicine box... That's what my second master gave me." Aluan said softly.
"We'll send some banknotes to the landlord later to repair the house, and then write a letter asking him to leave the box to the escort agency. After passing through this grassland, we will go to a city to rest and wait for the delivery."
Shanhai comforted her like this, and she nodded sensibly. Shi Wuqi felt that Shanhai was no longer anxious - although he hadn't been before, he just didn't show it, he was anxious in his heart. At this point, where fragmented information no longer constitutes a clear and complete goal, he naturally has no motivation. But Taoist Master Lin must still be worried about this.
And Mu Wan... They all heard Gao Yuejun's answer. There may be countless interpretations of that expression, but it was just Gaoyue-kun saying it in a nicer, more euphemistic way, nothing more. She knew the probability of Xueyan Sect Master's survival.
A few people moved slowly, walking silently toward the place where the sun rose, with five shadows following silently behind them.
On a tree in the distance, Jie Yan sat on a branch, leaning against the trunk, watching their shrinking figures. At this moment, thousands of beautiful spiritual butterflies suddenly gathered around her, mingling, merging, and forming a human shape, transforming into Lord Gaoyue and standing firmly on the branch.
"Sir, they are going east."
"That's good. They still have a long way to go."
"Just... just by doing this, is Lord Xueyue satisfied?"
"He didn't even have time to know about this. The Lord had to summon him. But we just did it."
A small smile formed on her lips. The sun shines through the canopy of trees, illuminating her smile. Only those moving eyes were still hidden in the shadows, staring in the direction they disappeared.
Qinglize has a humid climate, with many fungi and moss, and succulent ferns growing everywhere. Likewise, during the rainy season, the swamps also overflow. They were lucky in Shanhai and did not catch the rain for a few days. Without the moisture of fresh rain and dew, these swamps are slightly dry and the water quality is also a bit turbid.
Two short human figures emerged from the swamp behind Lord Kutsutsuki. One is in black and the other is in white. They both wear tall hats and stick out long tongues. This is the ghost of the underworld, and it is also the black and white impermanence often said among the people. In the underworld, there are many black and white and impermanent people, but they have no thoughts of their own and are nothing more than a group of little devils.
Lord Xueyue never looked back.
"who?"
Not far in front of him, there was an old tree that was not too thick. Two furry tentacles poked out from the side of the tree trunk. He was not blind, so he could naturally see them. What's more, even if it is not exposed, the breath has already been exposed.
Upon hearing this stern question, the two tentacles trembled violently, as if they were afraid. Immediately afterwards, the tentacles retracted, and a thin, trembling figure slowly appeared from behind the tree trunk. It was an ordinary little monster, with two large, clear but servile black eyes on its pointed white face. She wore inappropriately long boots with off-white fuzz similar to the tentacles on the cuffs and collar. A long cloak hung behind her, with lines like cracked glass and mixed colors, but very plain. The cloak is also decorated with beautiful spots that look like eye pupils.
He's a pretty good-looking monster, but very weak. This is Kutsutsuki-kun's evaluation. However, just before he was about to question who she was and why she had been hiding there for so long, two familiar voices came from behind him.
"Hongxuan Long Night, Yama Demon wants to see you."
"I know. It's really annoying."
The little monster timidly hid behind the tree. When she cautiously poked her head out again, Lord Xueyue and Black and White Wuchang were gone. She stepped forward with some anxiety and looked around. There was only a little bit of the big monster's scent left in the air, but it was completely gone. She was a little disappointed, and her little tentacles drooped.
"What are you doing?"
She turned around suddenly and realized that she hadn't noticed any humans approaching. He was a gentle young man, and his whole body exuded the aura of a man of letters. However, he was carrying a painting basket behind him, and the paintings inside radiated a strong evil aura.
"Onmyoji?"
Her voice is very soft and light, like soft flower petals and fluttering butterflies. The tone was somewhat hostile, but not fearful. The little monster that was timid in front of Lord Kotsutsuki just now seemed to have been replaced.
"Don't be nervous, I won't bully you."
"You may not be able to beat me."
"I know. I don't like to take the initiative to cause trouble...but the demonic energy in you is very strong. Maybe you are quite powerful. Do you want to be my shikigami? My name is Chengyou..."
Cheng You stretched out his hand and looked at her with a smile. No one would refuse such a beautiful smile, but the little monster turned his head and wanted to leave.
"No. I need to find someone."
"Who are you looking for?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
"Is it the big monster that was here just now? Ah, don't get me wrong, I didn't see it. I just felt that the monster nearby was too strong, so I wanted to take a closer look out of curiosity."
"You humans are so desperate."
"Really? But it just so happens that I am also looking for someone."
"No, actually I'm not looking for someone..." She shook her head, "I'm looking for a Master Impermanence."
Cheng You raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What a coincidence, I also want to find a Master Impermanence. By the way, I haven't asked the girl yet, what's your name..."
