Son-in-law [Cultivator]

When the shop served the food, Jiang You rested his chin with one hand and quietly stared at the lake outside the building.

In March, the spring breeze is gentle, and the water waves on the lake are slightly rising.

When Jiang You looked away, Ming Yan, who was staring at him blankly, seemed to wake up suddenly, and hurriedly shifted his gaze to the food on the table.

Jiang You pretended not to notice these, and ate calmly.

After lunch, Jiang You asked Ming Yan: "Where do you want to go this afternoon?"

Ming Yan puffed his cheeks and raised his eyes.

As he thought about it, his chewing movements gradually slowed down.Suddenly, as if thinking of something, his eyes brightened up.

"Brother, can I take you to a place?" Ming Yan rolled his eyes, "A place just for the two of us!"

So Jiang You sent away the servants who followed, and followed Ming Yan out of Yongming City.

They stopped before a cliff.

Jiang You looked around: This place is under the cliff on the back of the mountain, almost the highest mountain in the Yongming City area.The surrounding vegetation is lush and lush, and it is indeed deserted.

Ming Yan blinked mysteriously, turned around and jumped a few times in front of the mountain wall.

Jiang You glanced at it, but couldn't move his eyes away.

Although Ming Yan's movements seemed chaotic, they were actually very rhythmic. Jiang You can be sure that this is some kind of formation step that he has never read before.

When Ming Yan stopped and raised his head to make a "quickly praise me" expression, the mountain wall behind him suddenly split open to both sides.

Jiang You's pupils shrunk.

"Brother, come with me!" Seeing that Ming Yan had walked into it boldly, he looked at his back with complicated eyes, paused for a while, and then followed into it.

But they didn't know that the figures of the two disappeared into the mountain wall in an instant, and they were nowhere to be found.

There is indeed a cave behind the mountain wall.

It’s not that you are still in the cave, but suddenly you can see the blue sky and floating clouds; the grass is luxuriant under your feet, and the flowers are delicious; the stream beside you is winding down, slowly sinking into the white mist in the distance.In the distance, there were some unnamed small animals jumping around. When they saw Jiang You and Ming Yan from a distance, they jumped to their side with wide-eyed curiosity as if they were not afraid of people...

Everything is like a fairyland.

Jiang You was startled.

He turned his head and glanced at Ming Yan, who looked like offering treasures, slowed down his thoughts about asking Ming Yan's previous steps, and smiled, "How did you find this place?"

Ming Yan was stunned, he looked around in a daze, tried his best to think for a while, and finally only hesitated: "I, I was sick before... well, I was sick, just... I just know this place..."

These words did not match the preamble and the afterword, which reminded Jiang You of his strange illness, so he stopped furthering it.

Pulling Mingyan by his side, Jiang You calmed down and carefully explored this world with his spiritual sense.

The limit of his spiritual knowledge is almost covering a radius of two miles.Now, he can clearly see the scene within two miles, which is almost the same as within the line of sight.As for the places outside the spiritual consciousness, they are all shrouded in mist, and it is obvious that there is no intention of attacking outsiders here.

What a strange place, Jiang You thought.

First of all, a certain kind of footwork is required to open it, but there is no intention to expel outsiders; secondly, the aura here is very full, but all the flowers, plants and trees are not rare treasures, but are varieties that can be seen everywhere on the road, but they are soaked all the year round. ? Obsessed with the spiritual energy, the growth is better than the outside; finally, when recovering the spiritual consciousness, Jiang You found that there is actually a very thin mist attached to it.And as soon as these things entered his body, they disappeared into his dantian along the meridian in an instant...there was no trace to be found again.

Jiang You's heart shuddered.

But when he subconsciously ran his dantian to test whether there was a problem, not only was there no abnormality in his dantian, but he also sent him a message similar to "desire".

Jiang You was stunned again.

He had entered two small realms that were randomly opened. According to his predecessors, these were mostly caves left after the fall of the great powers who used to refine the gods to return to the void.In the small world, there are various tests suitable for monks before the golden core stage, and some common elixir are also conceived. When these small worlds are born, there must be seven-colored gods shining in the world, which attracts the ancient families to compete for them.

As for this Taoyuan...it looks like the former.

Jiang You thought so, but he didn't completely let go.He released his spiritual consciousness twice more, and no longer cared about his dantian's desire, he remained indifferent.

Half an hour has passed during this period.Ming Yan waited for him quietly, without any impatient look on his face.

Jiang You smiled apologetically, and dragged him slowly along the stream.

The stream is about eight feet wide and five feet deep, but it is so clear that you can see the bottom. From a distance, you can see a big herring lying on its back on the pebbles, whether it is stranded or basking in the sun.Ming Yan stared at the fish for a while, then swallowed: "Brother, that fish seems delicious."

Jiang You heard it and followed his line of sight.

Perhaps this place is full of aura, and even the fish are more agile and sensitive than the outside world.There was only a sound of "哗啦", but the fish flicked its tail into the water like a dead body, splashed a big splash, and then fled from here like lightning with a few tail swings.

Only water splashes and ripples remain.

Ming Yan stared there in despair for a moment, then reluctantly looked away.

Jiang You couldn't bear to see his pitiful appearance, so he took his sword and plunged it into the brook to run the soft water.The meaning of soft water is one of the origins of water, so many fat fish surrounded it with their tails waving, but there was no one that escaped before.

Ming Yan didn't care, and clapped his hands happily.Seeing that some fish flicked their tails in surprise, but still hesitantly gathered around Jiang You's sword, he immediately pointed to the fattest one among them silently, and asked Jiang You to come up to him.

Jiang You has traveled many times, and simple grilled fish and barbecue are no problem.He easily cleaned up the fish, set up a fire, picked melons, fruits, ginger, garlic and fragrant leaves that grew wantonly in the forest and stuffed them into the fish's belly... Soon, the smell of grilled fish filled the nostrils.

After Jiang You finished roasting and gave him more than half, Ming Yan couldn't wait to take a bite.The skin of the fish is slightly burnt, but the flesh of the fish is extremely tender, it melts in the mouth, and the fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth, it is delicious!

After eating the grilled fish, Jiang You reached out and touched Ming Yan's still flat stomach.Seeing Ming Yan staring at him with wide-eyed eyes, he realized that he seemed to have gone too far.But still holding Ming Yan's hand without changing his expression, he continued walking along the creek.

Perhaps the surroundings were too quiet and peaceful, and their footsteps seemed soothing and comfortable.

Jiang You even asked: "Ming Yan, you said earlier that you were sick... what is it?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a little surprise in his eyes.

He was surprising himself.

Because in the past, he would never have gone so deeply to ask someone he had known for less than seven days.

Why is the fate between people so strange?

When he met Ming Youxin, he experienced a near-death experience, and then Ming Youxin clearly expressed his affection for him, but he rejected him.Now that he is in the Ming family, his Taoist companion is not the shy and timid little girl, but this ignorant and naive young man beside him.

Jiang You was originally a very self-disciplined and rational person.Long before leaving the school, he had already thought about how to treat Ming Yan - if he was annoying, then he would be cold and distant; if he was a likable one, then he would be easy to take care of.After all, if he didn't find the answer he wanted, he would leave after all; and if he found the answer, the end would be to repay his kindness before leaving.

No matter what, he is leaving.

He was not interested in exploring Ming Yan's inner self, or his illness.

But now, there is an indescribable urge deep in his heart, driving him to understand the people around him.

... If he can really find the answer, should he try his best to treat Ming Yan in the future in order to repay his kindness?

Ming Yan blinked, dazed for a moment.

Then he raised his eyes and looked at Jiang You, the depths of his eyes were full of confusion: "It's just a disease...I, I don't know..."

Jiang You repeated: "I don't know?"

Ming Yan's expression was still blank: "Daddy, grandpa, brother... They all said that I was sick, but I didn't feel bad. I couldn't remember what it was... Is it because I'm stupid?"

Jiang You was silent for a while before replying: "No."

He stared at Ming Yan, and his eyes sank deep into Ming Yan's eyes: "It's not stupid, Ming Yan." The childish heart is the least thing in the cultivation world.

Ming Yan still half understood, but his expression gradually became clear, with unconcealable joy.

Because Jiang You said it.

He is not stupid.

Probably because of being affirmed, Ming Yan's footsteps gradually became cheerful.He deliberately stomped his feet to scare the fish and shrimp in the water; he kicked the clear water in the stream with his toes, not only had a good time, but also wet his shoes.

Not far away, the sika deer tilted its head and looked at Ming Yan curiously, as if it couldn't understand why that unknown creature was so childish... After all, it didn't scare those little fishes anymore after it became an adult.

Jiang You listened carefully to what Ming Yan was saying, occasionally responded a few words, but stopped asking him such questions.

When Jiang You realized that time had passed for a long time and stopped, the sky of this Taoyuan was still blue.Jiang You was vigilant, and pulled Ming Yan back to the mountain wall quickly: However, unexpectedly, he and Ming Yan walked at least [-] steps along the stream, and saw the mountain wall on the way back, but it was only a hundred steps.

Walking out of the mountain wall, the night is cold.

Jiang You looked up at the moonlight, and calculated that it was almost Haishi.However, inside, it is clear that the passage of time cannot be felt.

He recalled every detail of the inside, and stared at Ming Yan: "Ming Yan, promise me, no one will talk about this place except your father from now on." I'm afraid I won't get any favors if I speak out rashly.

"Yes," Ming Yan nodded, "I promise!"

Jiang You walked around with Ming Yan for three full days.Although there were no servants to accompany them, they never went to that peach garden again.

Three days later, the servant brought the monthly training resources.

At that time, Jiang You was practicing swordsmanship, so he didn't immediately check whether the resources were complete.When he finished practicing the sword, the young man in the courtyard wanted to cry but said without tears: "My lord, the Qianqiu Pavilion only sent the young master's resources for this month... No, I didn't send you..."

Jiang You raised an eyebrow.

It has only been four days since he got married with Ming Yan, and this is the first month. The Qianqiu Pavilion, which Ming Yang's family is in charge of, does not share his monthly salary.

A good dismount.
