After all, we didn’t make it to the city before dark. The donkey ran away and the cart disappeared. It was good. Life was getting worse and worse. Now I could only rest in a tree. This was really unsettling.
As soon as it was dawn, Shen Xichen got up and set off, entering the city just as the city gate opened. Ayu had never been to any other place except Shanxi City. There were mountains, forests and trees along the way. After entering the city, she felt fresh and curious about everything. Qingfeng Town is very different from Jinxi City. Jinxi City is in the south, with many rivers and a relatively humid climate. Qingfeng Town is located at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, relatively close to the north. The wind blows cool and dry. Qingfeng Mountain is also a major sect of cultivators. You can see monks wearing Taoist robes or hats everywhere in the city. Because Qingfeng Mountain The spiritual power is abundant. In addition to the Qingfeng Taoist Temple on the top of the mountain, there are scattered other temples in the mountains for colleagues to practice. In addition to the large number of people, there are also many blacksmith shops, inns, and a specialized horse market, which is completely different from the style of Shanxi City.
But now Ayu can only live with her eyesight and sigh silently, because this place is like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den to her now. There are so many capable people, and one person and one sword are enough for her to survive or die. So now she is hanging on her waist very wisely. Just in case, Shen Xichen also added a restriction on her body, so that no spiritual power can be released. In the eyes of others, she is now a complete decoration. Taste.
After returning to Qingfeng Town, Shen Xichen was not in a hurry to go back to the mountain. He went to the breakfast shop by familiar routes and finally had a decent breakfast to his satisfaction. He also deliberately took off the jade pendant and put it in front of the table, thinking to himself how delicious the mutton soup and pancakes were. This was a specialty of Qingfeng Town. Ayu knew that he did it on purpose and knew that she couldn't eat it. It was so delicious. It was so considerate that Ayu was moved and made a note in her heart. Sooner or later, she would make him pay the price, she swore!
After breakfast, Shen Xichen found an inn, which was on credit. Yes, the mutton soup just spent all his last money, but this is Qingfeng Town, and the green coat he is wearing is only available to people in Qingfeng Mountain. He knew where he was coming from, and greeted him politely. He said it was an honor and that the room fee was not important. However, he was still pretentious and said he would definitely make up for it. Ayu rolled her eyes after hearing this. This guy must be accurate. Got it!
Entering the guest room, Shen Xichen first checked inside and out with his spiritual sense. There was nothing unusual, and at the same time, he enlarged the restriction on the jade pendant to cover the entire room.
"Shameless!" The moment the restraint was lifted, Ayu flew up to Shen Xichen's eyes and blurted out in his face. These three words condensed all the resentment Ayu had along the way.
It was so sudden that Shen Xi was stunned. He was already defenseless against her. Then he stretched out his hand and pushed the jade pendant aside, instead of being angry he smiled, "Very good. I have made progress. I know how to control my emotions. It's funny. In fact, I can be more shameless."
After saying that, he walked to the bed and took off his coat. Ayu had been doing outdoor activities since she got together with him, and he had never changed his clothes. She was afraid that he would stink. Fortunately, he knew how to use his spiritual power to clean himself up. But now, he actually took off his clothes, even though it was just a coat. But Ayu was still a little panicked, but he took off his shoes and sat on the bed. Now Ayu couldn't help but said, "What are you going to do!" His tone was a little trembling,
"sleep!"
"You can sleep when you go to bed. Why don't you take off your clothes!" Just as he was saying this, Shen Xichen took off his coat again, leaving only a cotton middle coat.
"Ahhhhhh, Shen Xichen! You are so shameless." Ayu had never encountered such a scene before. She was really panicked. She was so nervous that she couldn't think of any other words to scold him.
"I don't know who it was thanks to. I originally planned to solve your problem in three days, but now, it's more than half a month! I've been wearing this dress for half a month, and I find it dirty. What are you thinking? Woolen cloth."
"Then...then you go back to Qingfeng Mountain. It won't take longer here." Ayu was wrong. He really just took off his coat, but he still couldn't help but want to say something back.
"I have never been out of the mountain to do business for more than five days. It's really suspicious to go back half a month this time. There was a bottomless pit like you along the way and a tiger monster came. My spiritual power was somewhat depleted. There are no fools in Qingfeng Mountain. I can't be fooled. My spiritual power was depleted. Master and others can tell at a glance that you can't hide it, so I have to seize the time to meditate and recuperate, and return to the mountain tomorrow. Also, I won't have any spiritual power to give you today and tomorrow, so don't bother me if you have nothing to do."
After saying that, Shen Xichen sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.
Ayu wilted after hearing the last sentence. Although this guy didn't speak well, he had never been stingy in terms of spiritual power despite being limited along the way. He was used to this delicious food and drink, but suddenly stopped for two days, and his heart suddenly felt empty. It floated weakly on the table. It was hard to believe that in just over half a month, I would be in such a situation. The enemy who seemed to be sleeping in front of me, although there was constant noise all the way, I had to admit that now he was no longer the only one except Xu Zhi. Unexpectedly, the person she trusted the most looked like a humble young man with his eyes closed. Although he was simple in appearance, he had an extraordinary temperament and a sharp mouth, but he pretended to be kind and polite to strangers. Fortunately, we are one step away from Qingfeng Mountain. We will definitely be able to transform as soon as possible. The future is still very bright.
Shen Xichen made no move from the time he sat down until the next day. It was hard not to wonder if this kid had gone crazy and lost his temper. Ayu walked around Shen Xichen and observed him several times, and then floated in front of him to explore. His breathing was steady. With such a fair face, what would it feel like to be hit with a punch? Haha, just as he was thinking happily, he said, "Hey!" The calm face in front of him suddenly opened his eyes and shouted at her.
"Ahhh..." Suddenly frightened, Ayu couldn't help but scream, and her body staggered backwards, almost falling to the ground. Shen Xichen opened his eyes again and felt refreshed. This was him, the proud man of heaven in the world of monasticism. He felt even more happy when he saw Ayu who was frightened by him. He had long felt that this evil obstacle was in his way. It's really fun to move around and look so funny when you get scared.
"Dog Taoist, you are used to doing such dirty things, there is really no reward." Ayu flew far away from him, and said to herself loudly, fearing that he would not hear.
"I'm really sorry, I scared you. I thought it was some small flying insect." After saying that, Shen Xichen closed his eyes and slowly stopped. I got up and called the waiter to get some water. After a little cleaning, I reduced the restriction to the jade body again, picked up my belongings, and it was time to go back to the mountain.
After leaving the inn, we walked toward the north gate of the town. After leaving the town, we walked two miles to the foot of Qingfeng Mountain. From the foot of the mountain to the top, we had to walk for half a day on the mountain road. Shen Xichen had no intention of walking up. He was different from the past. In an instant, he could use his spiritual power to reach the top of the mountain.
"Brother? It's Senior Brother Xichen!" On the mountain road far away, two figures, one fat and one thin, ran quickly after seeing Shen Xichen. After seeing the person clearly, they found that they were wearing the same clothes as Shen Xichen. Wearing coarse white clothes and a green jacket, they turned out to be his classmates. The two of them were carrying baggage and breathing heavily. Although they were quite different in stature, their faces were very imaginary. They turned out to be twins.
"Go to worry and leave resentment. Are you going down the mountain to find me?" The twins have always had weak spiritual power. They are usually responsible for shopping in the mountain. There is no need to carry baggage when going down the mountain to buy, and it is impossible to accept the task of exorcising evil spirits. The only answer was that he was ordered to run errands to find this senior brother who had not returned for more than half a month, and that was indeed the case.
"Yes, senior brother, you have been away from the mountain for more than half a month. If you haven't written a letter to explain the situation, master sent me and Liyan down the mountain to look for you. Fortunately, senior brother is fine, and we are relieved." The one who spoke was the thin Taoist priest, who was just going to worry. .
"Yes, yes, fortunately, senior brother is fine." Fat Taoist priest Quchou also agreed.
"It was a bit tricky to go down the mountain this time, so I came back late. I will explain the situation to Master when I return to the mountain. Just in time, you two will help me go to the Xianyuan Inn in Qingfeng Town. I have a big task for you. The details are You’ll know once you go there.”
"Yes, senior brother." The two Taoist priests listened to Shen Xichen's words very much. When they heard that it was a big task, their faces could not hide their excitement. But this so-called big task... is really something Shen Xichen can do. Ayu was once again impressed by Shen Xichen's shamelessness.
After saying that, Shen Xichen disappeared on the spot. It was great to have spiritual power.
Although the two little Taoist priests were very happy to take over the rare task, they looked back at Qingfeng Mountain... They had just come down the mountain. There was no senior brother to take them. On the long road back to the mountain, they were excited to face the naked reality. Dissipated most of...
