Dawn, sunrise in the east.
Yue Jiu suddenly stopped and looked ahead in trance.
The golden morning light was like paint splashed by a giant. It instantly soaked into the clouds and mist on the mountainside, making it look like a swaying golden yarn.
Spring God Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round. He originally thought that even the sunlight would not penetrate, but he did not expect that it would be like this when the sun rose.
At this moment, the stagnant fog seemed to come alive, dancing and flowing, greedily absorbing the morning sun and becoming part of the light.
This is a beautiful scene, especially the vividness shown in an instant.
The old man leading the way noticed his strangeness and said with a smile: "You can regard it as part of the formation."
Yue Jiu reacted, quickly followed the old man, and said, "Senior will laugh."
The old man shook his head, continued to lead him up the mountain, and said slowly: "Spring God Mountain is not a forbidden area. It is open to all practitioners in the Western Mountains on the Spring Festival every year. This sunrise scene has always been talked about. But judging from your appearance, you don’t seem to know this.”
Yue Jiu looked at the puzzled expression on the old man's face and felt a little confused.
His experience after arriving at Spring God Mountain was a bit strange. Before he could identify himself and explain his situation, the old man took him on a mountain climb.
At first, he thought that Ling Qingzhu had known about his arrival, but seeing the old man's unhurried look, he finally couldn't help but asked: "I haven't asked the senior about his identity yet. I came to Spring God Mountain to find Ling Yan." girl."
"I know, you have that girl's aura." The old man nodded. As he walked into the fog, the light mist that had absorbed the morning light unconsciously rushed to his side. He waved to Yue Jiu. , said with some regret: "That girl is so blessed that she doesn't know how to be blessed. I clearly told her that the morning air is very good for her, but she just said she is tired of watching the sunrise on this mountain."
Yue Jiu was hit by the light mist. As she breathed, she felt a cool and warm breath flowing through her limbs. The fatigue from running all night disappeared at this moment.
Yue Jiu didn't realize it until now. It turned out that the clouds and mist that shrouded Spring God Mountain were not clouds at all, but the purest spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
But considering the status of the Ling family, it seems that Spring God Mountain should have such a hand.
Yue Jiu noticed that the unconscious casual cultivator in his hand was beginning to wake up in the spiritual mist. Just as he was about to take action, a gust of wind suddenly came from in front of the spiritual mist. The old man laughed, stopped and said, "If someone comes, the old man will not lead the way." .”
Yue Jiu's eyes were looking in the direction of the sound. When she heard the words, she turned her head and was startled.
There was an old man beside him, but he disappeared as soon as his eyes turned.
"Who is it? Huh——"
The spiritual mist surged, and a beautiful shadow fell in front of Yue Jiu.
Ling Yan opened her eyes wide and looked at Yue Jiu carefully. In the end, she still didn't want to believe it: "Are you Yue Jiu?"
Yue Jiu looked at the pretty face in front of her, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "I'm here to find you."
Ling Yan raised her slender eyebrows slightly and hummed: "I invited you to Spring God Mountain yesterday, but you didn't come, so why are you here now?"
On the way here, Yue Jiu sorted out her thoughts and told Ling Yan everything she found.
"You mean there might be some kind of deal between the caravan in Baidi City and Uncle Xiao, and this person is the messenger?"
Ling Yan squatted down and looked at the casual cultivator who was thrown to the ground by Yue Jiu.
Yue Jiu said: "This is just my guess. If I want to find evidence, there is only one person. Unfortunately, the restrictions in this person's sea of consciousness are somewhat special. I can only forcefully unlock them, but if I do so, he will probably die directly." .”
Ling Yan raised his head, smiled, and said, "I didn't expect you to do this."
Yue Jiu looked away and said: "I heard some things from some casual cultivators. It would not be good if you and the Lin family are separated because of this small matter."
Ling Yan stood up and said, "I was indeed a little curious yesterday, because even if the second brother has always disliked some people in the Lin family, he would not do such low-level things. Things may be different from what we thought."
Yue Jiu was stunned: "What, this matter has nothing to do with your second brother?"
"No." Ling Yan motioned to Yue Jiu to bring the casual cultivators, and while walking towards the depths of the spirit mist, he said: "The second brother has been detained by the eldest brother, because he did ask the leader of the caravan for something, but with Uncle Xiao has nothing to do with it.”
Yue Jiu asked subconsciously: "What's the matter?"
Ling Yan's figure stagnated slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said, "He only said it was related to you, and refused to say anything if asked again."
Yue Jiu was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Ling Yun went to Baoqi Tower after leaving him. It had something to do with him. Could it be for Ling Yan?
Maybe Ling Yun didn't want Ling Yan to know about their conversation in the cave? But does Ling Yan really not know about this?
Yue Jiu followed Ling Yan, looking at her back with complicated eyes. After calming down her emotions, she said: "Senior Xiao's state seems to be a bit wrong. After I left, the casual cultivator should have said something else to him. .”
Ling Yan nodded slightly and said, "My elder brother has been released from prison, and he is the one I will take you to find."
Yue Jiu's heart tightened subconsciously, and then she felt ashamed and ridiculous for her change.
Only then did he remember the old man who took him up the mountain, and quickly asked: "Who is the senior who took me up the mountain? Senior Cedar?"
"My uncle is in Qingfeng Valley next to me, ah..."
Ling Yan suddenly stopped in his tracks, and seemed to have realized what Yue Jiu had said. He turned around and asked with a serious face: "You mean someone took you up the mountain?"
Yue Jiu nodded and said with some surprise: "Is there any problem?"
Ling Yan nodded: "There is a problem, of course there is a problem."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and smiled happily: "What did he say and do?"
Yue Jiu was a little confused by Ling Yan's emotional changes. After thinking about it, she carefully talked about her experiences since entering the mountain.
Ling Yan walked to his side unknowingly. When he finished speaking, she happily grabbed his sleeve and said, "Since Grandpa Shu has approved of you, you can practice in Spring God Mountain in the future."
Yue Jiu didn't react and asked, "Who do you think he is?"
"Grandpa Tree." Ling Yan was obviously happy for Yue Jiu's experience. Her beautiful eyes looked around as if she wanted to find the Grandpa Tree she was talking about. When she saw Yue Jiu's confused face, she explained with a smile: "Now that you have seen it, Him, then this shouldn’t be a secret to you.”
"Grandpa Shu is the guardian of Spring God Mountain and has protected my Ling family for many years."
Yue Jiu remembered the topic that the casual cultivators discussed the most after arriving in the Western Mountain Realm. Her heart moved and she asked in a solemn voice: "Is he an immortal?"
Ling Yan's brows moved, and he thought about it seriously before saying, "It should be considered so. Anyway, in front of him, the head of the family is the same generation as us, we are all juniors."
Yue Jiu thought that the old man might be standing there watching them, but she couldn't help but couldn't help her curiosity about the immortal, and said, "I heard what you mean, isn't he from the Ling family?"
Ling Yan shook his head, looked at his feet and said, "The master of the family said that before the place below us was called Spring God Mountain, Grandpa Shu was already here."
"In my opinion, he is the master of Spring God Mountain. But he is very generous. Not only did he agree to us living here, but he also held the Spring Festival every year. Many casual cultivators in the Western Mountain Realm broke through here."
Hearing this, Yuejiu could only sigh in her heart.
In his eyes, the Immortal has always looked like an immortal, but when this senior appeared in front of him, he didn't look like a master at all. He looked like a kind man looking at the door of his house and welcoming guests at any time. elder.
Knowing that there was such a person in Spring God Mountain, the sense of urgency in Yue Jiu's heart was much lessened, and she subconsciously sighed: "As time goes by, perhaps this senior has seen too many people come and go."
Ling Yan smiled slightly, looked around the mountains and said, "Probably just like the flowers, plants and trees all over the mountains and fields."
Yue Jiu was stunned: "What's the explanation?"
Ling Yan replied crisply: "People have a cycle of life and death, and flowers, plants and trees also have their years of prosperity and decline. In Grandpa Shu's eyes, we may just be bigger flowers and grass."
Yue Jiu laughed at Ling Yan's novel statement, but suddenly remembered her physical condition, and the smile disappeared in her heart, and she said: "Senior Xiao talked to me about his past yesterday, and it touched me a lot. "
Ling Yan thoughtfully said, "You said that his condition was not right because he talked about the past?"
Yue Jiu glanced at her, then looked away, and said slowly: "Trees can be evergreen, but can flowers and plants escape the fate of withering and blooming every year? If there is only one lone grass left on the roadside, what is the point of practicing? Woolen cloth?"
Yue Jiu said: "My practice is not for immortality."
Ling Yan lowered his gaze, as if he had forgotten the purpose of his trip, and took him for a walk on the mountain road. He said slowly: "I have never met my mother. The only family members in my memory are my two brothers, but they are just assumptions. I will be so sad without them in Spring God Mountain in the future. Is this what you want to say?"
The spiritual mist dyed with morning light slowly drifted past Ling Yan's side, making her already slim figure even more slender.
However, Yue Jiu only felt weak, and her voice became much softer as she said, "Ordinary people will be sad when they experience the death of a loved one, but even if this sadness lasts until death, it only lasts for a few decades."
"For practitioners, this sadness will be stretched out longer by time. You may not feel it at ordinary times, but one day when you are walking on the road, you see similar scenery, or smell the familiar smell in the wind, and suddenly think of each other. The scenes I experienced were nothing short of torture.”
Ling Yan covered her painful heart, turned to look at him, and asked, "Are you talking about my brother and the others or yourself?"
Yue Jiu looked into her eyes and said, "It's all the same."
Yue Jiu looked at her and said seriously: "Time brings different experiences to each of us, but in the end it is fair. Fortunately, we all practice cultivation, and we may have to wait many years before we encounter such problems. "
"Unfortunately, we encountered this problem at the same time." Ling Yan followed his words, looked at him directly, and said with a smile: "When you talk about Uncle Xiao, are you worried about my practice?"
Yue Jiu was speechless and looked away.
Ling Yan became interested, her eyes brightened slightly, and asked: "Someday in the future, what will you encounter to make you think of me?"
Yue Jiu looked at her face and said, "You won't die."
Ling Yan said: "Of course I won't die now, but what about in the future?"
Yue Jiu was helpless and said: "We should avoid this situation from happening. By then..."
Yue Jiu paused suddenly, as if even he himself didn't understand what would happen by then.
Ling Yan refused to let him go and said, "What will you do then?"
Yue Jiu looked at her anxious look and said hesitantly: "Maybe I can come and see you more often?"
Ling Yan suddenly closed his lips and couldn't help but move the corners of his lips a few times. On the contrary, he got out of a certain emotion faster than Yue Jiu. He pointed at the casual cultivator in his hand and said, "This man is about to wake up. Let's go find him." Brother."
With that said, he turned around and walked forward.
