"Get up!" Bai Mengjin returned to the guest room and slapped him awake.
Ling Bufei opened his eyes and asked her, "Uncle is gone?"
"Let's go." Bai Mengjin sat down and picked up a cup of tea.
Ling Bufei took the tea and took a sip. He sighed and said, "It's really annoying to do this every day... Why are you looking at me?"
"I have drunk this tea." Bai Mengjin said expressionlessly.
"Oh." Ling Bufei responded casually, and after a while he realized what was happening and his face slowly turned red.
Bai Mengjin had already poured another cup and took a few sips silently without paying attention to his condition. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Baili Xu's voice sounded outside: "Where is the young master?"
Then Songzi replied: "Young Sect Master is in the room, and Senior Sister Bai is also there."
"Okay." I don't know what Baili Xu was hesitating about, but he didn't come in in the end.
Bai Mengjin asked: "Are you going out?"
"Okay!" Ling Bufei secretly breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't wait to agree.
The two of them came out of the house and saw Baili Xu talking to two elders. When they saw them, they got busy and greeted them: "Master, Miss Bai."
"What are you talking about?" Ling Bufei squeezed in.
Baili Xu replied: "We are talking about Liuyue City."
"Um?"
Baili Xu explained carefully: "Monsters in the Nascent Soul stage are rare, let alone appear so strangely. I just went to the Deacon Hall to explain this matter to Master Wen. Senior Sister You Yan said that in recent years, there has been an increase in monsters in various places. , we can often receive reports from demon hunters.”
In the world of immortality, there are many casual cultivators who make a living by hunting monsters. If they encounter a monster that exceeds their strength, they will report it to the nearest immortal sect and let them deal with it.
"Really?" Ling Bufei turned to ask the two elders, "Why is this happening? Is it related to the Demon Sealing Barrier?"
Hua Wusheng nodded: "Thousands of years have passed since the Demon Sealing War. The barrier has become looser year by year, and the demon energy has leaked to Kyushu, so the number of demons has increased. Over the years, the Immortal Alliance has been sending people to reinforce it, but it has always been repaired. It cannot completely solve the problem.”
"Can't we re-deploy the barrier?" Bailixu asked, "In this way, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause."
Hua Wusheng gave a bitter smile: "Do you think it's easy to build a demon-sealing barrier? Both resources and manpower are an extremely terrifying figure. When this barrier was built, it was based on the demonic hearts of the four demon kings in the demon world, and there were several The unclear monk used his body as a shield to fill the formation eye. In the current world of immortality, it is impossible to use it."
"I see……"
After those demon hunters eliminate demons, they will collect the demonic energy and send it to the nearest fairy gate in exchange for spiritual stones. This demonic energy is used to make up for the loss of the demon-sealing barrier.
Lord Kumu continued: "According to the senior in Canngling Mountain, things in the world go back and forth, and when the Demon-Sealing Barrier cannot hold on anymore, there will be the next Demon-Sealing War."
He looked at the three children with worries in his eyes: "Your uncle and I are the same age. If there is a war in my lifetime, I will risk my life. I just can't worry about you. If you don't have enough cultivation when the war happens, I won’t be able to protect myself in the future!”
Baili Xu immediately said: "Master, I will practice diligently to protect the Young Master as soon as possible."
Hua laughed silently: "Good boy."
Listening to these words, Bai Mengjin's memory was pulled back to his previous life.
The senior from Canngling Mountain was right. The demon-sealing barrier became looser every year, and the monsters became more and more active. In the next few hundred years, the major immortal sects fought to eliminate demons and struggled to support themselves. By the time she was reborn and returned, the barrier was crumbling and could collapse at any time.
Because of this, the Ziwei ruins were born, and everyone hopes to find treasures from this ancient fairy palace and enhance their own strength.
This was also the reason why she took the risk of being besieged by the Immortal Sect to hunt for treasure.
Thinking of all the efforts he had made in his previous life, Bai Mengjin couldn't help but be lost in thought. She spent thousands of years just to get an answer, but she didn't expect to be reborn before everything broke out.
"By the way, Young Master." Baili Xu remembered, "After I came back, everyone gave you many gifts, and I brought them all."
"Huh?" This was a new experience, and Ling Bufei was very excited, "What is it? Why did you give it to me?"
"Because you saved everyone!" Baili Xu took out the Qiankun bag and took out things one by one, "Young master, you don't know, early this morning, Jinghong Zhaoying was squeezed into a corner by them, and everyone was so enthusiastic. .”
He took out a wide variety of things, such as elixirs, amulets, magical instruments, which were all relatively normal, as well as various toys, food, clothing, pendants... They couldn't be placed on the table and could only be placed in the open space next to them.
The most interesting thing was a wooden horse rocking cart. Ling Bufei sat on it and found a hole in his head. He didn't know what it was for.
Bailixu said: "Oh, that junior brother demonstrated it to me. This is how to put the spirit stone."
He took out a spirit stone and put it in. The Trojan's eyes lit up and it started shaking back and forth.
Ling Bufei laughed and said, "It's interesting, but does this junior brother think I'm a child?"
Baili Xu pointed to the ear next to him: "Master, please twist this."
Ling Bufei did as he was told, and then feet grew out from under the wooden horse and moved forward step by step.
Everyone looked at it with a smile and commented: "This is good, what a clever idea."
"As long as you have a spiritual stone, you can use it as a mount. It doesn't matter whether you have magic power or not. It's perfect for you!"
"This disciple is really thoughtful."
Pine nuts and peach gum were so excited that Ling Bufei played with them for a while and then gave it to them.
"So, I'm very popular now?" It's hard for Ling Bufei to imagine. Ever since he was young, his disciples have always kept a distance from him.
Baili Xu smiled and nodded: "Now the entire sect is discussing the young master's heroic deeds!"
As he spoke, the surrounding fog began to shake.
Hua silently smiled and released the water mirror, reflecting the scene at the dock.
There was a small boat parked at the pier. A middle-aged man in rich attire stood there respectfully and said loudly: "The villain, the manager of the Ling family, wants to see Elder Hua."
Hua Wusheng raised the corners of her lips and said to Ling Bufei, "Look, I know you are not completely useless yet. Even the Ling family has people coming."
Ling Bufei didn't bother to answer: "Uncle, I can send him away, but I don't want to see him."
Hua Wusheng nodded, and her voice came out through the water mirror: "What's the matter?"
The steward replied: "The old man heard that the eldest son was injured, and specially ordered the villain to come and visit him."
"Bu Fei is recuperating and it is inconvenient to see guests."
The steward said hurriedly: "I don't dare to disturb the eldest master. I just want to see your immortal master and ask about the situation so that I can reply to the old master."
Hua Wusheng took back the water mirror and glanced to the side.
Baili Xu stood up voluntarily: "I'll go."
Thank you all for your monthly votes. It’s the last day of the month, so...is there anything else?
