Afternoon.
Under the leadership of three foundation-building seniors, thirty-six inner disciples left Yunchuan Peak.
Head to the mountain gate and pass the Economic Water Peak.
Yu Ye wanted to take the opportunity to visit Angelica Yi and several of his fellow disciples, but was expressly prohibited from doing so. And the regret doesn't stop there. He originally wanted to wait for an opportunity to sneak into Huoyun Pavilion, but now he can only give up.
After leaving the mountain gate, a group of dozens of people headed straight to Amano Town due north. After arriving at the Yunqi Villa in Tianye Town, he did not rush on his way, but stayed in the courtyard.
The residence was a large room, empty without any furnishings, and everyone could only sit on the ground to rest.
Three seniors took several disciples out to buy items.
In the evening, two seniors, Jiao Yu and Gao Deng, took their disciples and left one after another. The remaining disciples continued to wait where they were.
Night falls, but Mo Xiao, Che Ju, and Bai Zhi still haven't returned.
An oil lamp was lit in the house, adding a little light in the darkness.
In the corner, there was an old man and a young man sitting.
The old man's eyes were lowered, as if he was in meditation.
The young man's eyes flickered and he silently looked at his companions.
Chenqi, Gumuzi and Mingye sat together and chatted, talking about the customs and interesting things of Qi country. Several others sat down to rest quietly. Among them, Bian Ji and Lu Zheng had dealt with each other in Kongtong. Pu Tong, Jing Fu and Xue Bao were acquaintances for the first time. They were three taciturn middle-aged men, all of whom had Qi Refining Nine. With a level of cultivation, there is a faint murderous aura on his body, and he looks very fierce and tough.
Among the twelve disciples who went to Qi this time, seven were masters of the ninth level of Qi refining. Among the remaining five people, Chenqi has reached the perfect state of the seventh level of Qi refining, Gu Muzi and Ming Ye have also reached the seventh level of Qi refining, and Bai Zhi is at the late stage of the sixth level of Qi refining. Only Yu Ye's cultivation is at the bottom. .
But regardless of his cultivation level, with only seven disciples at the ninth level of Qi Refining, even a foundation-building expert would be wary of him. Coupled with the flying swords, pills and spiritual stones distributed, such a powerful formation could actually Call it travel?
But there was nowhere to ask.
When I went to Qi State, Mo Xiao was the only person who knew about it. Although Leng Chen had a close friendship with her, he didn't dare to ask a word.
Yu Ye glanced at Leng Chen beside him.
This senior brother has been a member of the Immortal Sect for nearly a hundred years. He has made the Immortal Sect his home and is far more loyal to the Immortal Sect than others.
Yu Ye couldn't help but call out——
"Brother!"
"What's the matter?"
Leng Chen sat upright.
"Who else is there in your family?"
"unknown."
"How could you not know?"
"I haven't returned for decades, so I don't know."
"Why don't you reply?"
"When I left home when I was young, no one knew me when I returned to my hometown, so I will never go back again!"
"oh……"
Yu Ye lowered his head and said nothing.
Leng Chen slowly opened his eyes and said softly: "Junior brother, are you homesick?"
"without……"
"Haha, at your age, I often miss home and miss my parents at home. But when my parents are gone, my home is gone too."
"I have a family, and my thatched cottage still exists..."
Leng Chen's words were calm, but he sounded sad.
However, Yu Ye has his own ideas.
Although his parents are gone, his family still exists. In Xingyuan Valley, there are two thatched houses of his family. There is also my mother’s grave on the hillside in front of my house.
"Well, it's good to have a family!"
Leng Chen had no intention of arguing or saying much. He twisted his beard and said with a smile: "There is no root in life, peace of mind is the destination." While feeling emotional, he suddenly asked with interest: "Where did you buy your wine?"
"liquor?"
"That jar of wine you gave me!"
Yu Ye said in confusion: "Senior Brother Leng, when will I give you the wine?"
"oops!"
Leng Chen turned around, stretched out his hand and said, "You invited me to drink that day, and I stopped drinking..."
"oh--"
Yu Ye suddenly realized and said: "Senior brother likes to collect fine wine!"
"Uh-huh!"
Leng Chen nodded repeatedly.
Yu Ye said casually: "The jars of wine I have on my body come from the State of Qi..."
"No!"
Leng Chen waved his hand and interrupted: "I have drank all the fine wines in Qizhou and am familiar with the taste of fine wines from all over the country. Junior brother, don't lie to me, your wine definitely does not come from Qi!"
Yu Ye's heart skipped a beat, and he continued: "... from overseas in Qi State."
"Where overseas?"
"Qimen Island."
"Qimen Island?"
"An isolated island off the coast of Qi State. I passed by here on a boat and met traders from other countries, so I bought a few jars of old wine."
"I see!"
"Senior brother, I don't drink alcohol at all. How do I know the taste of wine?"
"this……"
Leng Chen hesitated and argued: "Since it is a collection, you must taste it!"
"Hey!"
Yu Ye smiled knowingly.
Leng Chen, however, had a straight face and said sternly: "Alcohol is a poison that penetrates the intestines, sex is a bone scraper. Young people, you should take this as a warning!"
Yu Ye said quietly: "I still have a few jars of poisonous wine..."
Leng Chen couldn't help lowering his voice and said flatteringly: "Junior brother..."
"Oh, I don't dare to harm senior brother!"
Yu Ye closed his eyes and stopped making any sound.
Leng Chen had no choice but to turn around, looking a little lonely, then he twirled his long beard, shook his head and said to himself: "Wine is a toxin that penetrates the intestines, and it is also a forget-you-elixir! Don't you think, one cup relieves the pain of love, and three cups forget the loneliness, A hundred cups will make you reach heaven, but a thousand cups will not make you immortal..."
People who are good drinkers should have similar temperaments.
This senior brother Leng Chen is similar to Taoist Priest Guiyuan. They are both casual and sincere in their treatment of others. However, one is obsessed with joys and sorrows, while the other is detached from the mortal world.
The night passed.
In the early morning, Mo Xiao returned with Che Ju and Bai Zhi.
Everyone followed to the front yard of Yunqi Courtyard and walked to another large room.
There is a teleportation array inside the house.
When Yu Ye and Dang Gui first arrived in Tianye Town, they took advantage of the teleportation array in the Yunqi Courtyard. He was no stranger to this place.
Mo Xiao led his disciples into the house and received the teleportation talisman. As the light of the formation flickered, one figure after another disappeared. The formation can teleport five people at a time, and Yu Ye and Leng Chen finally stepped into the formation.
The light flickers and the scenery changes...
The light dissipated, and a large room appeared in front of him. Outside the formation, Mo Xiao and other immortal disciples stood. Everyone did not leave the room and continued to teleport after the formation was re-arranged.
When Yu Ye and Leng Chen stepped into the formation again, he couldn't help but asked quietly -
"Senior Brother Leng, where did you teleport before?"
"It has been teleported to Zhengyang Gate and Liyuan Gate successively, and my junior brother doesn't know about it?"
Of course Yu Ye knew about the teleportation place, but he was just worried.
This trip to Qi State turned out to be exactly the same as Yu Ye's trip to Zhongshan. First, take the Zhengyang Gate, then Li Yuan Gate, and then Xuankun Mountain. The Xuanling Immortal Gate in Xuankun Mountain is Mingye's territory. If he gets in the way or takes the opportunity to seek revenge, the consequences will be unpredictable...
After the flickering light disappeared, a formation and a spacious cave appeared in front of him. There were several other young people who looked like disciples of the Immortal Sect busy, and a familiar figure was waving.
No other disciples were seen, only Bai Zhi was waiting.
Yu Ye and Leng Chen walked out of the formation and couldn't help but asked via voicemail: "What is this place?"
"Hongyuan Mountain."
Walking out of the cave, there is a mountain forest.
Mo Xiao was standing in the clearing in the forest with a group of disciples. When she saw the three people appearing, she waved her hand and ran straight down the mountain.
Yu Ye breathed a sigh of relief and secretly took out a picture slip.
I thought I was teleported to Xuankun Mountain, but it turned out to be Hongyuan Mountain. As shown on the map, Hongyuan Mountain is located 30,000 miles northeast of Xuankun Mountain.
Well, as long as you stay away from the Xuanling Immortal Sect, you will be away from danger.
After three or five miles, we arrived at the foot of the mountain. The group of thirteen people did not stop, but went straight into the depths of the mountain.
Yu Ye didn't know what happened, so he followed up, but was gradually pushed away, and could only pursue with all his strength. Even if his light body technique had improved, it would still be difficult to compare with Leng Chen and other nine-level Qi refining masters. He was forced to sacrifice a wind control talisman, but Chen Qi laughed...
Dusk.
Everyone stopped in a valley and gathered together.
Yu Ye was the last one to come forward. Before he could catch his breath, he heard Mo Xiao say: "When you get here, there is no need to hide anything. You and I are not going to Lanling City for a trip, but because we have other important responsibilities. As we all know, Lanling City It is the capital of the State of Qi. The old leader of the State of Qi is seriously ill and has only a few days left. The old leader has two sons who have been fighting openly and secretly to inherit the throne. The eldest son has the support of Tianshengmen and is bound to win. The important task for you and me here is to help the young master seize the throne of the country..."
At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, it’s a cold time. Although this place is not as icy and snowy as the Xingyuan Valley, the cold wind is howling and chilling to the bone.
Yu Ye couldn't help but shudder.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the cold, but Mo Xiao's words were amazing.
I thought about it all the way before, but I still didn't understand the purpose of this trip. Now the mystery is suddenly revealed, it turns out that he is participating in the mortal battle for the master of the country. That's fine, but it involves another immortal sect.
Tianshengmen?
What is this for?
Immortals and mortals should not interfere with each other, so why did the Yunchuan Immortal Sect intervene in the dispute between mortals? The so-called mortal fight is actually a fight among immortals. Just having a group of Qi Refining disciples is asking for trouble, isn't it?
No wonder Yunchuan Immortal Sect is eager to recruit inner disciples, and rewards them with flying swords, elixirs, and spiritual stones. Sure enough, they are here to fight for their lives.
And what benefits can Yunchuan Xianmen get?
There must be something fishy about this matter!
"...The enshrinement of the capital is to establish the foundation disciples of Tiansheng Sect. It is not appropriate for the elders of the Immortal Sect to come forward, so you and I act as the young master's bodyguards and act secretly. And the news was leaked before leaving, so we have to be more careful..."
Mo Xiao explained the relevant matters, and Che Ju and Bai Zhi took out a pile of ordinary clothes.
In order to avoid revealing the identity of the disciples of the Immortal Sect, everyone had to disguise themselves as casual cultivators. The change of route to Hongyuan Mountain on the way was intentional. I don't know if Mo Xiao listened to Leng Chen's report, or if the elders of the Xianmen had other instructions.
Yu Ye took two sets of clothes from Bai Zhi's hands.
He found a remote place to change his clothes, put away the Immortal Sect Token, then waved his sleeves and staggered back to where he was.
Random thoughts are futile and nerve-wracking. That's it for now, let's take it one step at a time.
Meet Bai Zhi head-on.
She changed into a long gown, like a man's dress, took out a cloth handkerchief, and gently covered her face.
Yu Ye was slightly absent-minded.
In a dazed moment, I returned to that winter night three years ago...
