Three months later…
Silver Snow Fairy City.
This is a fairy city located at the junction of Yunmang Mountains and Silver Grassland.
Li Shuidao took a detour from Cangzhou and took more than three months to reach this fairy city.
After passing Silver Snow City, the next fairy city is the "Golden Staff Fairy City".
Li Shuidao was very familiar with these two fairy cities.
There are many people who know him in Fairy City.
Especially in Yinxue Immortal City, if he dared to show his true appearance in this city, he would most likely even alarm the third-level masters of the Yunmang Sword Sect.
If he hadn't refined the nephrite mask, Li Shuidao would have taken a detour and never entered the city.
At this time, a hazy middle-aged man wearing black clothes and a bamboo hat entered the city.
The person who came was none other than Li Shuidao, who was wearing a nephrite mask.
As soon as he entered the city, he stopped, then he turned around and walked out of the city gate, then entered the city again, repeating this process, going around in circles several times.
"Who are you? Why are you wandering around the city gate?" A city gate guard saw that he was suspicious and came to question him on the spot.
Li Shuidao took off his bamboo hat and explained with an embarrassed look on his face: "I, Li Banxian, wanted to go into the city to meet friends, but was worried that someone would not want to see me, so he wandered around the city gate, hesitant."
"You idiot! If you linger, if you hesitate, get out of here and don't hang around at the door." The city gate guard scolded.
"Yes, yes... I figured it out, it's better to go to the city." Li Shuidao said with a smile.
Then Li Shuidao strode into the city.
At this time, the jade pendant on his waist was shining brightly.
The safe jade pendant reminds Li Shuidao of the approaching danger.
However, the magnitude of this flicker should be equivalent to a sneak attack by a second-level peak monster, and it would not pose a fatal threat to Li Shuidao.
Li Shuidao's face was as sinking as water.
Things are a little weird...
wrong!
It should be said that this Yinxue City is a little weird. When you enter the city, you will be warned of danger, but when you leave the city, nothing will happen.
Li Shuidao walked on the streets of Yinxue City with a trace of solemnity on his face.
Nothing unusual could be seen in the city, which made him even more uneasy.
All dangers originate from the unknown...
The safe jade pendant reminder will not come without reason...
Li Shuidao walked slowly. The houses on both sides of the street were arranged neatly. Red lanterns were hung under the eaves. The breeze blew and the lanterns swayed gently.
There is an endless stream of pedestrians on the street, including vendors selling goods, craftsmen, and ordinary citizens. They are busy with their own affairs, forming a picture full of life.
Li Shuidao bought a sweet potato from a sweet potato vendor and ate it while walking. He listened to the sounds around him and observed the people and things around him.
He saw a mother teaching her child how to write, two young men arguing over a question, and a group of mortals gathered around to enjoy the performance of a juggler.
Everything is so normal...
Where does the danger come from?
Li Shuidao observed and thought.
suddenly.
His eyes lit up and he saw a familiar figure.
A woman in green clothes was sitting in the corner of a teahouse, holding a cup of hot tea in her hand and looking quietly at the street outside the window.
She was alone, with a long sword hanging on her waist and her expression indifferent.
Li Shuidao's heart moved, and he decided to walk over and say hello.
"Miss Nangong, you're fine." Li Shuidao said with a smile.
"Who are you? Why do you know me?" Nangong Qin replied in a cold voice. Her eyes quickly swept over his face, as if she was trying to remember where she had seen him.
Li Shuidao's eyes fell on Nangong Qin, and he found that her expression and behavior revealed a deep sense of alienation.
He smiled faintly: "Miss Nangong and I met in the old days. We sat across from each other all night. You also taught me the "Snake Title Heart Technique". It is still vivid in my mind and I have never forgotten it. "
"You are that scoundrel!" Nangong Qin stood up and shouted with shock.
The monks drinking tea around him were all impressed.
Nangong Qin also realized that she was speaking a little too loudly.
"Did you follow me?" Nangong Qin asked in a low voice.
Li Shuidao shook his head: "Don't be sentimental, it's just fate that met you."
Nangong Qin rolled his eyes: "Why don't you go to Xiantu City with me?"
Li Shuidao sighed: "It will be inconvenient for us, a man and a woman, to go on the road together. I have nowhere to vent my anger. I am afraid that I will destroy Miss Nangong's innocence."
Hearing this, Nangong Qin thought of Li Shuidao's bold teasing again, and instead of being annoyed, she felt a little happy.
However, as a woman, everyone knows about setting up archways. She covered her face with frost and said seriously: "Don't try to fool me. Tell the truth."
The truth is that one person is safe, and two people have to guard against each other's traps. There is no need to worry if they meet by chance like this.
But if you say this clearly, it would be too emotionally damaging.
Li Shuidao was silent for a moment, then took the initiative to change the subject and said, "Miss Nangong, why don't you go straight to Xiantu City?"
Nangong Qin frowned and explained: "It's hard to make any progress in cultivating in the family. I originally planned to go out for a walk, hoping to get a chance. Naturally, there is no need to rush to Xiantu City."
Li Shuidao nodded in approval: "Then do you have a chance?"
Nangong Qin shook her head with a depressed look on her face. She sighed and said, "You can't find opportunities if you deliberately look for them. Instead, they will fall on you when you least expect them. But after all, you have to go out more often." Come on, if you stay in family retreat, you will never have the chance to come to your door."
"That's true." Li Shuidao confirmed again.
"Fellow Daoist Li, you also set off early, but did you get an opportunity on the way?" Nangong Qin asked curiously.
Li Shuidao smiled, nodded, pointed at his face and said, "This mask is opportunity."
hehe……
Nangong Qin smiled and said: "A lifelike human skin mask can be bought for dozens of jade coins. How can it be said that it is a chance."
Li Shuidao shook his head without explaining...
This is not a human skin mask that can be bought for tens of dollars. Wearing it can transform into anyone, including Nangong Qin.
However, this involves the secret of the nephrite mask, and Li Shuidao will naturally not "show off" it.
In addition, there is another opportunity...
This opportunity is even more indescribable!
Any treasure that involves the fate of heaven and earth is no ordinary treasure.
The safe jade plaque hanging on Li Shuidao's waist is absolutely extremely precious, far better than ordinary high-grade magical artifacts.
The value of this item is absolutely comparable to that of a magic weapon, or even more.
correct!
Li Shuidao suddenly thought of an idea. He reached out and took off the shimmering jade pendant from his waist.
"Miss Nangong, this magic weapon is very interesting. Wear it on your body." Li Shuidao took off the safe jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Nangong Qin.
Nangong Qin's face showed joy, and her beautiful eyes shone with excitement: "Do you want to give it to me?"
"When did I say I would give it to you? You are too pretentious." Li Shuidao immediately rolled his eyes.
"If you don't give it to me, then why do you give it to me?"
"Just put it on and be obedient!" Li Shuidao looked serious, no longer as frivolous as before.
Nangong Qin pouted her mouth and tied the jade pendant for safe access to her wrist with a look of reluctance.
The jade pendant originally exuded a layer of gleaming white light, seemingly overflowing with precious light. However, when Nangong Qin hung the jade pendant, the white light was actually mixed with a dazzling red light.
Red light!
Omen of death!
Li Shuidao's heart sank. The danger in the city seemed not to target him personally, but to everyone in the city.
He quickly took back the safe jade pendant from Nangong Qin and hung it back on his waist.
Judging from the flickering light of the jade pendant, this level of danger is equivalent to a sneak attack by a second-level peak monster. Li Shuidao may be able to withstand the maneuvers with his strength, but Nangong Qin, who is in the early second-level, will definitely die.
"Get out of the city quickly!" Li Shuidao looked nervous and took Nangong Qin's hand and rushed out of the city.
"What are you doing out of the city?" Nangong Qin was confused by his actions, but Li Shuidao's expression made her dare not ask any more questions, so she could only follow him out of the city.
The two of them soon arrived outside Yinxue City. At this time, the jade pendant around Li Shuidao's waist no longer shimmered, which proved that there would be no danger as long as they left Yinxue City.
"You go to the Golden Staff Immortal City in the Yinsha Prairie and wait for me. We will meet at the Golden Staff Immortal City and then go to the Immortal Way City together." Li Shuidao said solemnly.
"Why do you have to meet up at the Golden Stick Immortal City? Are you doing something important in the Yinxue City Market?"
"No... I don't plan to do anything big, but there are dangers lurking in this city itself." Li Shuidao said truthfully.
Nangong Qin asked curiously: "What danger?"
Li Shuidao pondered for a moment and then said: "This... I can't tell. You know that danger always exists in the invisible. If it can be foreseen, it is not called danger. In short, Miss Nangong should leave quickly and stay away from the place of right and wrong. .”
Nangong Qin: "..."
"Miss Nangong, take your leave." Li Shuidao clasped his fists and turned to leave.
Nangong Qin stopped him and said, "Since you said there is danger in Yinxue City, why did you go back?"
Li Shuidao said with a solemn expression: "This... you don't understand. Blessings lie behind misfortunes, and misfortunes lie behind blessings. If a person avoids all dangers, it is equivalent to avoiding all opportunities. You You must know that everything in the world is coexisting with dangers, and only by facing dangers can you gain opportunities.”
"Then...then I also want to get a chance. I will go in with you." Nangong Qin followed Li Shuidao's words and said.
She didn't believe Li Shuidao's words at all. Li Shuidao must have wanted to do something big, and most likely he wanted to rob the treasure house. Otherwise, why would he change his appearance?
Unexpectedly, Li Shuidao said with a serious face: "For me, it's an opportunity, but for you, it's a dead end. Don't mix it up."
Nangong Qin: "..."
Li Shuidao turned around and returned to the city gate, disappearing into the crowd.
Nangong Qin looked through the city gate at the busy traffic and people in Yinxue City. It was a peaceful scene, and it didn't look like there was any danger hidden.
Opportunity?
Destiny?
Or a scam?
Nangong Qin's eyes narrowed slightly, she snorted and stepped into the city gate again, and also disappeared into the busy crowd... (End of this chapter)
