After wading across the river and crossing the mountain road, Xirong Magic City will suddenly appear in front of you. Under the light and shadow, the stone city gate seems to be transparent, and the bearing pillars are decorated with insect-patterned stones, like the shadow of silver scales swimming in the desert.
Looking up from the foot of Xirong Demon Mountain, the top of Ruyun Mountain looks particularly abrupt in the vast desert. The deafening shouts are accompanied by the biting cold wind, and there is a faint and dark fragrance floating in the nose, mixed with a sweet and cold taste.
Peng You, Yao Yan'er, and Zuo Yan were led by the Xirong magician. The three of them walked up the mountain and entered the main hall of the magic mountain.
Peng You saw four elderly magicians sitting in the hall. They were all wearing black robes, with high brows, and their martial arts should be high. When the four saw Zuo Yan entering, they hurriedly stood up and saluted to greet him.
The four elders and a group of magicians stood on both sides. When the three of them entered the hall, Zuo Yan stood in the middle, and a magician came forward to bring tea and water.
An elder saw a man and a woman on both sides of Zuo Yan. He didn't recognize him, and he didn't see that he was dressed as a magician. He just thought he was a guard and a maid. He looked at Peng You and Yao Yan'er and said, "You two are still not standing down." .”
Zuo Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Peng You saw her raising a cup of tea and throwing it at the elder in front of him. The elder couldn't avoid it, and the tea hit his face with great force, causing water droplets to fly out to both sides.
With a snap of his fingers, Peng You made the invisible wall block the water droplets from splashing onto himself and Yao Yan'er.
The elder was suddenly splashed with water. He was shocked and angry. Zuo Yan shouted: "Brother Peng, you can do whatever you want!" She said and turned to look at Peng You and said, "Brother, I didn't splash you. "
As Zuo Yan said, he reached out to wipe the water on Peng You. Peng You said hurriedly: "Sister Yan, you didn't splash it."
When the elders saw that Zuo Yan was so close to the young man and called him brother, they couldn't help but become suspicious. One of them hurriedly asked Peng You, "I wonder who you are?"
Peng You replied: "I am Shenlong Peng."
When the four elders heard the name of Shenlong Peng, they all looked surprised, and the elder who was splashed with water was the first to prostrate himself to the ground.
The four people said in unison but with different voices: The grandson of the great magician? A person who fights against the Three Nines alone? The God who moved mountains and reclaimed seas?
What's more, he shed tears and said, "You are finally back. The great magician only wanted to see you once before he was alive, but he couldn't get his wish."
Peng You heard this, but he was also a little regretful that he might not have seen his only living relative.
All the magicians knelt down and worshiped Peng You as the Demon Lord. Zuo Yan and Yao Yaner both looked happy.
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed magician saw the fairy ring on Yao Yan'er's hand. He was shocked and pulled out the magic sword. An elder also noticed and showed the magic sword.
Seeing this, Peng You hurriedly said: "Don't do anything, she is my unmarried wife."
The magicians heard the words and started talking a lot, but the leader of the great elders laughed loudly and said: "The demon is so powerful that he can conquer the Dongyi Immortal Lord as his wife. It's really amazing. It's really Xirong's ability!"
Although Yao Yan'er was not happy to hear this, she just looked at Peng You with her lips pursed, and Peng You winked at her.
Zuo Yan didn't say much, he just asked: "Why don't you see my teacher? Where are they?"
The great elder hurriedly replied: "Master Zuotu is still in retreat and has not yet come out of seclusion. It is estimated that he will be released tomorrow and the day after."
Peng You asked: "I learned that the Chinese martial artist Jinglong entered Xirong. Does the elder know his whereabouts?"
The great elder shook his head slightly and said, "Why is he here?"
Peng You also shook his head and said: "I don't know, we still need to find the whereabouts of Jinglong." The great elder nodded and accepted the order.
Zuo Yan said to Peng You, "Brother, let them explore everything. Let's go back and rest." Peng You responded, took Yao Yan'er's hand, and walked out of the main hall together.
Peng You and the three of them each prepared a palace building and traveled around for several days. They bathed and rested in each palace building, and agreed to meet again in the evening.
When the sun set, the three of them came out separately and met at the entrance of the palace. Peng You saw that Yao Yan'er and Zuo Yan had changed into new clothes.
One has cheeks full of fresh lychees, a nose greasy with goose fat, gentle and supple, and approachable to the eye. One has autumn-cut eyes, jade-like fingers, ice-clear jade, and a fairylike appearance. Both of them have early hearts and beautiful faces to welcome them.
The two women each took a step forward and looked at Peng You. Yao Yaner smiled and said, "Brother Peng, you are so handsome."
Peng You also said: "Yan'er, you are also extremely beautiful."
Zuo Yan heard the compliments from the two of them and just said: "Brother, I'd like to thank you for running around all night. You also had dinner and walked around for a while. You still need to come back and rest more."
Yao Yan'er heard that Zuo Yan cared about Peng You sincerely. She looked at Zuo Yan, looked her up and said with a smile: "Sister Yan, you are very beautiful."
Zuo Yan is a person who is indifferent to people. Although people who meet her often have covetous feelings, they know that she is very capable, so they don't feel any frivolous words. At this time, hearing Yao Yan'er's praise, she felt a little happy in her heart and her cheeks turned red. .
Yao Yan'er said again: "The three of us have lost our parents, and we are all lonely. We can depend on each other in the future. From now on, when we are together, you will be warm in the winter, and I will be freezing in the summer, but it will be warm in the winter and cool in the summer. That's okay." Excellent.”
When Zuo Yan heard this, he looked at Yao Yan'er with his shining eyes, feeling grateful.
When Peng You heard this, he knew that Yan'er's teacher once taught her the art of capturing people's hearts through empathy, praise, and humor, but he didn't know why she used this art on Zuo Yan.
The three of them said nothing more, went to have dinner together, and then went to visit Xirong Magic City together.
Xirong Magic City is not as prosperous as Dongyi Fairy City, but it also has exotic feelings and various patterns. There are cacti and prickly pear planted on both sides of the road, but it is located on the edge of the desert, which shows it is quieter.
Peng You usually only travels with Yao Yan'er, but now the three of them are together. Moreover, each of them has entangled thoughts and is a little embarrassed.
The three of them had not wandered for long before they all returned to their bedrooms. They first arrived in front of Peng You's palace. Zuo Yan said, "Brother, please have a good rest. Zuo Tu will be out of seclusion today. We can find him and ask him a few questions."
Peng You nodded and said: "Exactly, after all I was born here, I need to ask him about my mother's affairs." He thought to himself, he also wanted to know if Zuo Tu had any evil intentions.
Peng You saw Yao Yan'er's eyes and wanted to be left alone to talk to him, so he added, "Sister Yan, you are also tired, please go back and rest."
Zuo Yan nodded, but saw that Yao Yan'er did not leave, but was waiting at the side.
Yao Yan'er had to say: "Brother Peng, I'm going to bed." She looked at Zuo Yan and said: "Sister Yan, let's go together." After Zuo Yan heard this, he just left with Yao Yan'er, and the three of them Everyone goes back to bed to rest.
In a secret room in the Demonic Mountain of Xirong, a man was concentrating on practicing with his eyes closed. He suddenly opened his eyes and sighed: "Is it true that as that man said, the so-called art of immortality is just a lie and cannot be achieved without the help of the power of heaven and earth."
The man got up and walked around the room, his thoughts fluctuating, and he sighed, thinking: Thirty years of research on the method of immortality have not paid off.
He then said to himself: "It's just that little jade pendant. Although it contains power, what does it have to do with immortality? Is what that person said credible?"
While the man was thinking about it, a man said outside the secret room: "Master Zuo Tu, the boy with the jade pendant has returned with the Demon Lord and the Immortal Lord." Zuo Tu heard this with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow, and only responded: "I understand."
