Shen Yu walked out of the door, and then went straight to a quiet house with a peach tree on the opposite corner of the street, with the word "Yaochi" engraved on it.
This street is less than a thousand feet in total, a horizontal line, with the houses of the Nine Holy Lands on both sides. According to the joke of the children in the city, the monks of Lingyin Temple are chanting sutras on the east side, and the warriors on the west side are yelling at the bald donkeys for making noise.
The distance between Daozong's and Yaochi's houses is only about three hundred feet.
The door was closed tightly. Smelling the faint floral fragrance and the woman's unique body fragrance in the air, Shen Yu was silent for a while, and then slowly knocked on the door.
It had been more than half a month since he arrived in Wanliu City. Only then did he remember that Ye Xingchen had given him a letter and asked him to hand it over to Fairy Xiyao in Yaochi.
After a while, the door was opened, and a cheerful and cute girl stuck out her little head from the door, and then said happily: "It's you."
This girl's name is Lingzhu. When the middle-aged woman from Yaochi went there with three maids, she was one of them, and she had a very good relationship with Douya'er.
Shen Yu said: "Send a letter to Fairy Xiyao for me."
Lingzhu touched her little head and said troubledly: "But Sister Xiyao has already left the city to fight!"
Shen Yu said, "Then take it first and give it to her when she comes back."
Ling Zhu was about to do as she was told, but suddenly her eyes rolled and she shook her head quickly and said, "No, no, sister Xiyao never likes others touching her things. Even if it's a letter, you should give it to her personally!"
Shen Yu was silent for a while, and was about to turn around and leave. Ling Zhu continued: "Sister Xiyao has not been back from the battlefield for a long time. This is not her temperament. We are all worried, but ordinary people can't make any difference. The holy place in the city You are the only remaining disciple of her, and you have to go in anyway, why not help her look for her, and then give her the letter?"
Seeing Ling Zhu's seemingly calm expression, but full of expectation and pleading in her heart, Shen Yu understood something, then said good, went home in no hurry, and came to the bookstore on East Street.
Lu Wenyu was sitting in the corner of the bookstore, telling stories to a group of children.
Seeing Shen Yu, he smiled slightly and said, "You have something to ask me about so soon?"
Shen Yu asked: "I heard that Xiyao, a disciple of Yaochi, has disappeared?"
Lu Wenyu smiled and said: "Yes, I haven't been back for two months. On such a large battlefield, there is a high probability that it is..."
Shen Yu asked: "Why don't you send someone to look for it?"
Lu Wenyu said calmly: "The big battlefield has opened. Those who enter are life-or-death. The most taboo is to save people one by one. This is an unspoken rule in the city. Only Yaochi sent two groups of people out one after another, but because My realm is low and I haven’t found any clues. What’s wrong? Is it related to her?”
Shen Yu didn't speak, just lost in thought.
Lu Wenyu saw through Shen Yu's thoughts and reminded: "It's better not to rush in and talk to the old blind man about the battlefield first."
The old blind man is the lord of Wanliu City.
He is also the only city lord of the Great Wall in the North for thousands of years.
No one knows his origin and identity, so the old blind man is called the old blind man. No matter whether he is a mortal child or a major practitioner in the spiritual world, he only knows this title.
Shen Yu nodded, thinking of the old man he met when he first came to Wanliu City. With a thought in his mind, he came to the city in an instant.
On the highest wall of Wanliu City, the old blind man sat cross-legged and said with a smile: "This generation of Dao Sect disciples can't be idle."
Shen Yu looked away, looking at the land in front of him that was completely covered by the chaotic energy, and said, "What's weird?"
The old blind man looked ahead, stretched out his right hand, nodded, and slowly explained: "The battlefield was split by the big demon and I with spiritual power, forming countless weird areas that even we cannot completely control. Strictly speaking, There are countless hidden broken spaces in this battlefield, which are much larger than the one hundred thousand miles of ground visible to the naked eye. Of course, this is for the sake of fairness."
"How come back?"
"Each person has a city-returning talisman, which is burned with spiritual power within the specified time. Within seven days, the space rift will automatically open and return.
"
Shen Yu asked: "Is this a game with the Demon Realm?"
The old blind man nodded and said: "Yes, the Demon Realm and we immediately entered the battlefield and entered a certain broken space. It is impossible to judge the strength of both sides. It is either life or death, or it depends on who has the best escape ability. This game is between immortals and demons. Strategies have been drawn up before the competition, and not only us, but also the Demon Realm are using this battlefield to select the final candidates."
Speaking of this, the old blind man said with a smile: "The descendants of the Holy Land have all met their opponents. Li Yizheng was the most happy, and He Pianpian of Yaochi was quite thrilling, but the most interesting thing was the little monk from Lingyin Temple, what a Vajra It’s not bad. I’ve rarely seen such a lackluster style of play in my life. I can’t even beat someone while I’m standing, hahahaha.”
"They all already have fixed battlefields?"
"Yes."
Shen Yu said calmly: "This is not appropriate."
The old blind man asked: "How can we increase our combat power in the shortest time if we don't do this?"
Shen Yu shook his head and said, "The higher you live, the more powerful you will be. It means nothing if you die in vain."
The old blind man said calmly: "Maybe."
Shen Yu was silent for a while and said, "Since I'm here, I want to go in and have a look."
The old blind man smiled and said, "Whatever."
Shen Yu added: "Where is the specific direction of Yaochi Xiyao's entry? I'll go there and take a look."
Entering the battlefield was a random choice, but Shen Yu spoke extremely calmly, and the old blind man did not refute anything. He just remained silent and said: "Originally, you also have a battlefield that has been arranged to practice your skills, but if you insist on going to Xi There may be an ambush in the broken space where Yao goes, and I won’t be able to take care of you.”
Shen Yu said calmly: "No need."
"How many days are you going to go?"
"Seven days."
Shen Yu took the city-returning talisman, which was a piece of talisman paper filled with various complex patterns. He suddenly said: "The old cripple and the old blind man."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "How did you tell?"
Shen Yu said calmly: "I can't tell. It's just that the old lame man and the old blind man have some connections. Then such a thought suddenly came to my mind and I said it, but I didn't expect it to be true."
When he saw the old cripple guarding the gate at the city gate, he felt something strange in his heart, but he couldn't express it. It was only then that he understood why.
The old man asked curiously: "Is this the so-called flash of inspiration?"
There is no basis or logic, but in that moment, many people can solve a difficult problem that they had never figured out.
Confucianism uses the word "sudden light" as a word, but in fact it is an extremely rare talent for Taoists, also known as a gift from God.
Shen Yu said: "I prefer to call it intuition, and my intuition is very accurate."
"interesting."
The old blind man smiled and said: "The entire Wanliu City is sealed. I'm afraid that someone from the Demon Realm who has been hiding for many years will enter the city from Linghuang. Naturally, I can only guard the gate in person, and I am really bored, so we separated. A thought goes out."
As the words fell, a figure vaguely appeared next to the old blind man, limping, grinning at Shen Yu, and then disappeared.
Shen Yu asked curiously: "One Qi can transform the three pure beings?"
The old blind man sat cross-legged, smiling and saying nothing.
There was another Buddha chanting vaguely behind him, and his breath was changing in an instant. A saint was giving lectures in mid-air, and the awe-inspiring breath came to his face.
Seeing this glorious aura, Shen Yu's eyes showed a clear look, and then he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Although he had already made assumptions about this old man.
But he didn't expect that.
The lord of Wanliu City.
Old blind man.
The three religions and hundreds of schools have become one.
