Li Yaozhi was about to leave when she saw a male cultivator in green clothes running towards her in the forest in the distance holding a long knife.
This man was short, thin, and very ugly, but his aura seemed to be that of a foundation-building monk.
Come with bad intentions!
She had to leave quickly.
As for Senior Brother Zhong, with so many treasures on him, he would definitely be fine, so she didn't have to worry too much.
With her feet attached to the walking talisman, she used her body skills and turned around to leave.
The spiritual power flowed through the veins, causing the pain of being eaten by thousands of insects. She gritted her teeth and endured the pain and swallowed two pulse-nourishing pills. She didn't know whether it was something wrong or the injury to the veins was too severe, but she didn't feel any better.
Her consciousness detected that the person behind her was chasing after her, so she quickly mobilized the spiritual energy in her white jade bracelet to speed up her journey.
The pain in the muscles and veins intensifies.
Her brows were frowned tightly, the corners of her eyes were red, and her face was covered with fine sweat.
The footsteps coming from behind are getting closer and closer.
For a moment, Li Yaozhi was anxious.
The sound of rushing water came from ahead, and with his spiritual consciousness, he saw that it was a large river in the flood season.
The river was extremely wide, and even if she used her spiritual consciousness, she could not see the scene on the other side.
She stood on the bank of the river and glanced back. The man was only ten meters away from her.
Looking back, she looked at the vast water surface. There were no dense trees above the river, so she could fly with her weapon.
Throwing the shuttle, it became bigger. She jumped on it and made it run away quickly for her life.
The green-clothed monk came after him and saw that the man had already flown away with his weapon. After a while, he disappeared. The fat duck he was looking for flew away. He was so angry that he cut the nearby trees in half with a knife.
Cursing in his mouth: "Hey, damn it, the monks in the Eastern Region are just too timid to run so fast!"
————
Li Yaozhi's shuttle was equipped with a stealth formation.
Seeing that the man was standing on the bank and did not catch up with him, she breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down on the futon in the Shuttle Hall. Her consciousness controlled the shuttle to continue flying to the other bank of the river.
After flying for a while, I replaced the shuttle with a new medium-grade spiritual stone, and it flew faster.
About an hour later, she finally came to the shore. There were tall trees here, with dense flowers and grass under the trees, and no traces of people trampling on them. At first glance, it was an extremely remote place.
"Hey~, there is no aura in the air! It's not as good as the North Land... Could this be the mortal world?" she murmured.
There was a slight sting in her consciousness, "How could it be? Could it be..." She took out the jade ruler, and sure enough, there was a deep crack on it, almost piercing it. If the demonic cultivator had been stronger at that time, I'm afraid this jade ruler is completely useless.
The jade ruler that she has now recognized as its owner is damaged, and her consciousness will also be affected. In addition, the imperial weapon has been flying rapidly for so long, so now her consciousness is beginning to hurt.
At this time, it was still early, so she had to quickly figure out where she was so that she could return to the sect as soon as possible.
The shuttle landed by the river, put it into the ring, swallowed a pill of recovery, and meditated on the spot until the refining pill was full of spiritual power. She sprinkled some insect repellent powder on her body and walked into the forest.
Due to her tendons, she couldn't use her spiritual power, and she didn't want to provoke the animals in the forest, so she tried to walk as close to the river as possible, so that she wouldn't get lost in the forest.
With the speed talisman attached to his feet, he is extremely fast even without using spiritual power.
Not long after, the river branched into five tributaries toward the forest. The water flow became slow, and traces of human trampling began to appear in the forest.
Suddenly, a snow-white rabbit came into view and was killed by her sword. She didn't waste the rabbit's body and threw it directly into the ice realm of space, waiting to be burned and eaten when she had time.
Afterwards, it was very quiet along the way, and she didn't see any traces of monsters, just ordinary beasts. After killing a tiger that dared to attack her, no more animals dared to disturb her.
She was sure that she must have fallen into the mortal world.
Gradually, a path appeared in his consciousness.
Li Yaozhi was very happy when he finally saw traces of the person, and even the pain in his veins seemed to be gone.
"This road must have been trampled by someone who went into the mountains to chop wood, hunt, and carry water. Even if that's the case, then I shouldn't be far from leaving the mountain!"
After setting foot on the path, we soon came out of the forest. At the foot of the mountain was a road leading from north to south.
It was getting late, and the sound of wind music could be heard in the distance.
This tune was exactly the same as the tune she played when she was getting married in Yunqiong Tower when she was in the mortal world.
"How can anyone get married at this hour?" Li Yaozhi wondered secretly.
The music got louder and louder, and a red-clad team came from a distance. The five people in front were playing, and the eight people behind were carrying a red sedan. Next to the sedan was an old woman dressed in a strange way.
As the sedan passed by, she seemed to hear the cry of a bride in the sedan, but what was suspicious was that there was no trace of sadness in the cry, as if it was just pretending.
Seeing this familiar plot, Li Yao thought to herself: Are these people forcing the bride to marry someone she doesn't like? Or... a ghost marriage?
Thinking of this, she became uneasy. Those who cultivated immortals would naturally take action when they saw something that was not in line with morality.
However, she did not rush forward to snatch the bride rashly.
The team turned around and headed towards Li Yaozhi.
She hurriedly dodged and hid behind a tree, then gathered her breath and fell behind, wanting to see what they were going to do.
The team went uphill along the road and soon came to the bank of the river. Although the wide river surface was calm, the river was bottomless and looked very scary under the cover of night.
Except for the bride in the sedan chair, the 14 people in the team knelt on the ground facing the river, bowed their heads and shouted respectfully: "Master Water God, the bride has arrived."
"Wow."
The water in the river began to churn, and Li Yaozhi stared at it closely.
"Girl Yun, come out quickly!" The strangely dressed old lady turned to the bride in the sedan.
The sedan curtain was lifted, and the bride, wearing a red dress and a red hijab, slowly walked out of the sedan.
"Wow." A louder sound of water sounded.
A two-meter-tall, handsome man dressed in red floated on the water with his bare feet.
I guess this man is the Grandpa Water God they call him, Li Yaozhi thought to himself.
The man stared at the bride named Yun Yatou and stretched out his right hand.
Yun Yatou put her hand up naturally, took a step forward, and was hugged by the man.
At this time, Li Yaozhi was even more confused, and his head was full of question marks.
Suddenly, the man seemed to notice Li Yaozhi hiding behind the big tree, and glanced at her meaningfully.
This glance seemed normal, but to Li Yaozhi it was not like this. The moment the man looked over, a strong pressure followed, almost forcing her to fall to the ground.
Fortunately, this pressure came and went quickly, only two breaths away, otherwise, she might really be seriously injured.
A deep rotating hole appeared in the calm water beneath the man. Then, he slowly descended with Yun Yatou in his arms and disappeared into the river.
"Grandpa Water God is gone. It's great that we can return to the good weather we had in previous years." The old woman said with excitement.
"Yeah, yeah." Others said.
"Hey, it's a pity, Girl Yun. However, the people in the village will definitely take good care of your family in the future, so don't worry!" The old woman sighed and looked at the river helplessly.
Li Yaozhi, who was behind the tree, looked at the calm water surface again, feeling very confused.
