In the morning, outside Tianhai City
In front of the vast white wilderness, the figure of the young man standing on the horse looks particularly small.
He sat on the horse, holding the reins with one hand and holding the wine bottle in front of his chest with the other. He looked at the wilderness ahead and was stunned at the huge ditch that seemed to span the entire horizon.
Is this... the barrier between continents?
Because it was winter in the Tianji Continent, the boundless wilderness that Lin Xiaolu saw was covered with thick snow. It was white and shiny, as white as the top of his head. The sunless sky reflected each other, which was very spectacular.
The sky and the earth are all white, there are no two colors.
"Shopkeeper Xiaolin, the guarding monk has allowed us to pass."
Behind him, Ling Wei, dressed in red, rushed over, holding a letter of recommendation written by Bingtang'er in her hand, shouting with a smile:
"Brother the monk also told me that it is autumn on the Canglan Continent opposite. Unlike us in Tianji, we can see the grassland there after passing the continental barrier."
On the horse, Lin Xiaolu smiled and nodded, then took the letter of recommendation, shook the reins, and said: "Let's go, drive!"
In the vast white land, the silhouettes of a man and a woman standing on horseback looked particularly small. They stepped on the cotton snow with flying snowflakes, like two black spots moving quickly in the white world, and finally arrived at Behind the huge continental barrier that looked like endless sword marks, they both jumped, from the icy snowfield to the green grassland in an instant.
Canglan Continent, once one of the three thousand worlds, consists of nine seas, six domains, and more than a thousand island plates.
Lin Xiaolu didn't know much about this place. When he was in the academy, he had never interacted with classmates from Canglan, so he didn't know anyone. After interacting with the monk Canglan who guarded the compartment, he Take Ling Wei and set off in a straight line, heading south.
At noon, Canglan Continent, Jiezhou, Lu State, by a certain river
"Shopkeeper Xiao Lin, are our horses really meant to be used on the continental barrier? You blindfolded the horses' eyes, then took them flying, and even tried your best to use part of the wind to drag them and form a wind Balls, so that they can't feel the strong wind inside, just so that they can run faster when running across the continental barrier?"
On the green lake, a boat with red lights and carved dragons and phoenixes was leisurely sailing on the lake. In the cabin, Ling Wei was holding her chin with a depressed look on her face, complaining to the young man in front of her who was stroking the window and looking at the scenery. :
"Flying at such a fast speed, it won't be long before we reach the next continent."
In front of him, a young man wearing a black gauze robe leaned over the boat window, his handsome face peeking out from under the window supported by wooden sticks, his chin resting lightly on the crook of his right arm, his left hand hanging outside the window, his fingertips raised Holding the wine bottle and admiring the scenery of the lake, he smiled leisurely and said:
"If I hadn't been unable to fly at full speed for a long time, I wouldn't have stopped for a short rest. Isn't it great like this? Half of the day is driving and half of it is playing, so the speed is not too slow."
Hearing this, Ling Wei, who was sitting in front of the coffee table, felt a little depressed, but she was a big-hearted girl and recovered quickly, and the boatman happened to bring a casserole over.
"Sir, you ordered casserole fish porridge."
"Wow~ It smells so good, thank you uncle."
On the table, Ling Wei opened the lid of the casserole, and the hot steam immediately floated out, making her face turn red.
While serving herself porridge, Ling Wei looked at Lin Xiaolu who was enjoying the scenery leisurely and said with a smile:
"Shopkeeper Xiao Lin, your new clothes are pretty good-looking. They are better than the gray robe you wore before. That one was too old-fashioned and made you look like an uncle."
After arriving in Canglan Continent, Lin Xiaolu went to buy a new piece of clothing, because his original gray robe was relatively thick. The climate and time of Canglan Continent and Tianji Continent were different, so wearing such a thick coat in autumn would be looked down upon by ordinary people. If you do, others will be surprised.
Lin Xiaolu, who was lying on the window sill, picked up the wine bottle, raised his slender neck at the same time, and then poured the spout of the wine bottle into his mouth. The wine immediately drew a long curved line into his mouth. After drinking like this, he suddenly spoke road:
"Ling Wei, don't call me shopkeeper Xiaolin anymore."
"Why? Is this a bad name?" Ling Wei, who was eating fish, was stunned.
Lin Xiaolu smiled and said:
"I have left my Linzhongju to Yingge. I am no longer a shopkeeper. Besides, I think the name is weird."
"Oh, okay, shopkeeper Xiao Lin, what do you want me to call you? Boss Lin?"
Lin Xiaolu pursed his lips and said with a smile:
"We have been friends for a long time. I am much older than you. Normally, it is more appropriate for you to call me senior, but this title is indeed a bit too unfamiliar. I will understand it after hearing it for a long time. Feel uncomfortable.
In this way, you will call me teacher and I will call you student. "
"Teacher?" Ling Wei was stunned, and then she was pleasantly surprised:
"You want to accept me as your disciple?"
Lin Xiaolu:......
"That's not what I meant." On the flower boat, Lin Xiaolu explained in a dumbfounded voice:
"I've told you that my method is different from that of cultivating immortals. You can't learn it. Accepting you as a student also means to teach you some other knowledge. And the title of teacher is something I learned in the Academy of Immortal Cultivators. , so...are you willing to be my student?"
Naturally, Ling Wei had no objection to hugging thighs, especially one of the thickest thighs in the world. She kept thinking about it. In the end, she imitated Lin Xiaolu's usual appearance, raised her hands and cupped her fists, and said respectfully:
"Teacher Xiaolu."
Lin Xiaolu, who was accepting a student for the first time, smiled when he saw this, and became interested for a moment. He stood up from the window sill, came to sit in front of Ling Wei, and then corrected her fist-holding movement step by step.
"From now on, when performing a fist-clasping salute, you must hold your right fist with your left palm. This is called a "good bow". Just now, when you held your left fist with your right hand, it was a "bad bow". It is inappropriate and impolite in this situation."
Lin Xiaolu said while teaching:
"The fist-holding ceremony is more commonly used in the mortal world. Immortal cultivators don't pay attention to this, but there is no harm in learning it. For example, if you meet a warrior like me in the future, if you want to greet someone with a fist-holding ceremony, you will end up using the fierce bow. , that would be troublesome, because for warriors, it means a battle of life and death, and if Jibai is used, it means a chance meeting or an ordinary sparring."
In the boat, Ling Wei blinked and listened curiously, then she fisted a few times and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the rules of fisting to be so complicated, Xiao Linzhang... Teacher Xiaolu, where did this rule come from?"
In front of him, Lin Xiaolu picked up a spoon, served himself porridge, and said with a smile:
"I'm not sure about this, but it seems to come from an old saying, which is that when a gentleman lives on the left, he values the left, and when using troops, he values the right."
Hearing this, Ling Wei was amazed and admired the young man in front of her even more.
"Teacher Xiaolu, you are so awesome, you actually know so many weird things."
"It's not that I know much, it's just that you haven't spent enough time in the mortal world."
Lin Xiaolu took a bite of the fish and felt that it was delicate and delicious. Then he took a sip of wine and smiled: "These things are very common things in the world. I had forgotten them at first, but then I saw others The more I hugged my fists, the more I started to remember them."
