Early the next morning, Yan Shu went to the forest to pick some kiwi fruits and cooked a pot of bamboo shoot soup. After eating and drinking enough, the old god had already disappeared, and he didn't know where he went. Yan Shu decided to go see Li Xiao. Although he didn't remember her, she couldn't turn a blind eye to him.
Passing by the Ling Pond again, although Yan Shu was still a little scared when she saw the people in the pond, she gradually got used to it. She walked quickly deep into the forest, recalling the place where she saw Li Xiao yesterday.
It's just that Yan Yan walked around the Lingchi twice and didn't run into Li Xiao.
The old god said that he sealed Li Xiao's force, making him unable to feel anything below his knees. It stands to reason that he could not move on his own, but where is he now? Could it be that the old god hid him?
But why did the old god hide Li Xiao? Didn’t you already talk about it yesterday? Yan Shu had no choice but to continue walking deeper.
At this time, Li Xiao was indeed taken away by the old god.
"Grandson, does your calf feel better?" the old god asked.
"It's much better, Grandpa." Li Xiao replied.
"This spiritual pool is larger and has stronger spiritual power. If you heal here, it will be more beneficial to your physical recovery." The old god said with a smile.
"Grandpa, why don't you see the girl yesterday?" Li Xiao asked.
"She is my new little apprentice. She is indeed a bit naughty. After I teach her the magic, let her come and play with you. You can heal your wounds in peace!" the old god replied, but what he was thinking about was, take a look. When will that girl Yan Shu find this place?
Yan Shu spent the whole morning searching in the mountains. In addition to finding many fruit trees, she also saw many large and small spiritual ponds. This place is really magical. It is obviously on the mountainside, but why are there so many spiritual pools? How were these pools formed?
Yan Shu felt tired and sleepy, and suddenly remembered what the old immortal said, soaking in this spiritual pool and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, you don't need to eat and you won't be hungry. So, Yan Shu wanted to give it a try, and saw a spiritual pool under the tree next to her, which was crystal clear to the bottom. Yan Shu took off her shoes and socks and jumped into the pool.
This spiritual spring has a moderate temperature and is filled with water vapor, just like a modern hot spring. It is indeed very refreshing, and Yan Yan can't help but want to soak in it for a while longer.
Just as Yan Shu closed her eyes and concentrated, a breeze blew over her face. Yan Shu opened her eyes slightly and saw an elk slowly walking towards her, its whole body glowing with white light. Yan Yan stood up quickly. Could it be that this was the sacred deer that the old immortal had seen?
"Sacred deer?" Yan Shu asked tentatively.
This sacred deer suddenly transformed into a human form and turned into a handsome young man. "Why can you see my true body?"
"What do you mean? Can't anyone else see it?" Yan Shu was puzzled.
"I often go out for a walk, and no one can see me." Shenlu replied.
"So, we are quite destined." Yan Shu smiled flatteringly. After all, he learned from the old immortal that this was a real immortal. But why did the old god say that he never saw the sacred deer again?
"You come from another world and I come from heaven. We can meet each other. It is indeed fate." Shenlu also agreed with what Yan Shu said.
"So, are there really gods in this world?" Yan Shu was convinced. Sure enough, those mythical stories that she heard when she was a child really might have existed.
"That's natural. Do you want to go to the heaven to see it? I can take you there." This sacred deer has been in Wujue Mountain for thousands of years, and it is rare to meet someone who can see him, so he simply made friends with her.
"You can't...send me to the west, right?" Yan Shu suddenly felt nervous.
