As soon as he entered the small courtyard, when the wooden door behind him closed, Yu Wan controlled the Purple Blade Wan Dao and blocked the attack from the lobby in front of him.
The nose smelled a light floral fragrance and a slightly sour taste in the air, and strange calls came from the lobby.
It didn't mean that he took action late. A rickety figure walked out of the dim lobby. The person who came here has a childish face and fair hair, and his eyebrows are as white as his hair. The ends are long and hang down on both sides of the corners of his eyes, all the way to his chin.
He saw Hu Fuwei with his eyes closed and unconscious in Yu Wan's arms. He anxiously wanted to pass, but his way was blocked by the purple-edged swords lying in front of him.
"Who are you?" Yu Wan felt no murderous intent from the other party, and had never heard Hu Fuwei mention a similar person before, so Yu Wan couldn't help but be very wary.
Perhaps when he saw Yu Wan's iconic silver hair, the man looked surprised for a moment, then he raised his hands and said, "What is the relationship between this little friend and Taoist Master Kong?"
As soon as the question came out, Yu Wan didn't respond. The man slapped his head and realized that he hadn't introduced him yet.
He coughed lightly, put his hands behind his back, and continued to speak slowly, "Oh, I'm Heyun. Previously, Daoist friend Kong broke into the black prison alone, and I took advantage of the chaos to escape. Since then, he has been hiding around the city."
"Later... cough... Later, I was accidentally discovered by the monks patrolling in the city, and was seriously injured in a fierce fight. I... finally found this place and hid in."
At the end, although He Yun's voice was still loud, Yu Wan could still hear the guilt in it.
"How do you know the formation formula here?"
"Ahem... I have a magic weapon in my hand that can break ordinary magic formations..." He Yun felt Yu Wan's sudden murderous intention in the middle of the sentence and hurriedly explained, "But don't worry, fellow Taoist, considering the situation, I will also share with you all We are comrades, and there is absolutely no intention of hostility.”
He Yun raised his hands and looked at Yu Wan innocently, trying his best to prove his friendliness.
However, it didn't mean he was late to respond. The next breath, He Yun saw the pale-faced Hu Fuwei and immediately changed the subject, "Fellow Taoist, instead of saying so much, why not heal Fuwei's injuries as soon as possible?"
Yu Wan knew that Hu Fuwei's condition was a coma caused by exhaustion. She had already given her two pills on the way, and she would be able to fully recover as long as she had a good sleep.
With the fingers of his left hand, the purple-edged sword immediately turned into a long snake, surrounding the crane cloud in the center.
She then walked into the lobby with Hu Fuwei in her arms, and went to the left room that her consciousness had explored earlier. Putting down Hu Fuwei, Yu Wan put down a formation disk beside her and came out directly.
She stood on the steps outside the lobby, ignoring He Yun who stood upright in front of her, and looked at the small courtyard from left to right.
According to Hu Fuwei, this small courtyard in the busy city was purchased by Kong Jinyu when he sneaked into this place before. Later, the two of them also stayed here while avoiding pursuit.
The small courtyard is long and narrow, with a pear tree planted on the left and a round stone table under the tree. On the right is a flat open space paved with light gray stone bricks. It is empty. Now the ground is only paved with a layer of orange-yellow stuff.
I don’t know what season it is here, but the pear trees in the courtyard are full of white flowers. If the normal growth order is followed, the trees will soon be covered with snow pears.
The courtyard was filled with the faint fragrance of pear blossoms. Yu Wan thought of the sour smell when she first entered, and couldn't help but move her eyes to the orange flesh on the ground on the right.
"This is yellow apricot, the fruit from my hometown."
Perhaps seeing Yu Wan's interest, He Yun did not forget to explain when he was surrounded by the long snake.
"I remember that day after picking a mountain of yellow apricots, I was accidentally surrounded by the argali clan, and then I was caught here. These yellow apricots didn't have time to be put into the jade box, and their spiritual power was basically completely dissipated."
"If you want to eat it, I have some fresh ones here. The texture and taste are much better than the dried ones."
As He Yun spoke, he raised his hand from his storage space. Unfortunately, he only raised his right hand an inch, and a bloody mark was cut on the back of his hand by the sharp blade of the long snake.
Then, the snake coiled tighter, and He Yun no longer dared to make any move.
After hearing what He Yun said just now, Yu Wan was curious. After walking in, she picked up a piece of apricot flesh and observed it.
As He Yun said, there is almost no spiritual energy in the apricot flesh. Perhaps because it has been dried for many days, the whole piece of apricot meat is shriveled and hard, and you can only smell the sour smell just now if you smell it carefully.
After observing for a moment, Yu Wan directly put the flap in his hand into his mouth.
Hiss ~ so sour.
The pulp that has lost its water content is very tough, with a taste that is more sour and less astringent, without a trace of sweetness. It's tasteless when eaten alone.
If it is used to soak in water or used as a condiment, it may have a unique flavor.
Although the taste was not good, Yu Wan still finished the piece in his hand. Then he ignored the crane cloud at all, walked straight into the empty room on the right side of the lobby, and began to meditate without using the formation.
It was still night outside at this time, and it was quiet. It was not a good time to go out and explore.
As for He Yun, Yu Wan didn't dare to believe it. She decided to disguise herself and go out early the next morning to find out the news.
He Yun saw that the silver-haired girl's cultivation level followed him, but her aura was extremely fierce, and the "black snake" coiled around her body was also quite spiritual, giving him no chance to move.
He watched the silver-haired girl's spirit beast running around, occasionally running to his dried apricots and eating two halves.
He didn't care about those yellow apricots, he just saw the two-headed pink pig's disgusted look on his face every time he ate it and couldn't help but feel depressed. He said to himself, don't eat it if you don't like it. Why do you have so many expressions on it?
Although this spiritual beast does not have black hair, its nature remains unchanged at all. It is really greedy.
He Yun was worried that the black snake on his body was making a mark on him, so he didn't dare to speak out and could only keep complaining in his heart.
As the night passed, He Yun began to count the cranes out of boredom, while Heng Ha was lying on the stone table under the pear tree, not knowing whether he was sleeping or doing something else.
Yu Wan, who was inside the house, watched the formations and puppet techniques for a while. Seeing that it was already bright outside, he used a cleaning technique on himself, got up and came to the courtyard.
Seeing He Yun looking at him with bright eyes, Yu Wan cleared his throat and said, "I will go to the city to check for news today. You..."
"Fairy, I know you well in the city. Let me accompany you." He Yun said hurriedly, "This way you can also confirm my identity. I am definitely a friend and not an enemy."
Yu Wan was originally hesitant to take He Yun out with her. After all, leaving him here alone, she was worried that this person would be harmful to Hu Fuwei.
Seeing that He Yun was so anxious at this time, Yu Wan changed the subject and said, "Why should I trust you?"
"Fairy, this is Xiancheng. You can't move without acquaintances. You will definitely be discovered when you go out. I have a way for you to dispel the worries of the people in the city."
"Humans, demons and demons live together here. Only with a token can you pass through the five districts of east, west, south, north, and middle. I have some demon friends who can help us buy tokens."
After saying this in one breath, He Yun saw Yu Wan's disbelief, raised three fingers to the sky, and swore a demonic oath.
"Fellow Taoist, I am also a person who strives for immortality...you demon, I will never break this demonic oath."
Having said so much and with full sincerity, He Yun said no more and just kept silent until it was too late to make the decision.
The next moment, Yu Wan's silver hair suddenly turned black, and then she put on a black robe.
She put away the purple-edged swords that surrounded He Yun. Under the cover of the black robe, her voice became hoarse and said, "You must know that if you want to play tricks, I can destroy you in one fell swoop."
"I know it." He Yun bent down and bowed respectfully to Yu Wan.
Heng Ha also trotted up to Yu Wan at this moment and followed them out of the small courtyard.
