Dust roots [comprehension]

The stone steps leading from the platform to the side peaks are only two people wide. The steps go around the mountain with steep ups and downs. The trees on both sides are lush and lush. The moist mist condenses into water droplets on the leaves, and drips down from time to time, wetting the shoulders of passers-by.

The mountain road is long, as if it has no end. After cultivating the golden core, Lu Tingyun seldom travels on two legs. He tried to use the method of shrinking the ground, and also tried to fly with the sword, but was interrupted by the sudden gust of spiritual energy .

In all honesty, this narrow road with winding paths can be called a beautiful scene, and the scenery is exquisitely arranged step by step, which is in contrast to the magnificent and huge platform, which can fully reflect the unique ingenuity of the builder.

One grand, one exquisite, the contrast is sharp but not obtrusive, and it can reflect the school's heritage.

Lu Tingyun wouldn't mind slowing down to appreciate it if he was wandering around when he had nothing to do, but now he has a purpose, how could he be calm.

The foggy environment made people anxious. Lu Tingyun, who could only walk step by step, vigorously opened the branches that stretched across the path, and only heard a snap, and the flexible branches broke.

The branch that had been aggrieved and drooping was held up by one hand, and the slender fingers touched the cut lightly, and the broken branch grew back again.

Lu Tingyun felt the aura belonging to the Nascent Soul cultivator behind him, and immediately turned around, seeing a familiar face.

Song Huaichen was still wearing the Guiyizong disciple uniform with one sleeve missing, and even the wound on his hand was still bleeding.

"Brother Song?"

"Fellow Daoist Lu." Song Huaichen who came out of the mist seemed to be different from a moment ago, with a cold sense of danger like a piece of ice, slipping down the back of his neck into his clothes, Lu Tingyun shivered.

"I came from the east and met your junior sister Liu Qingyan. She said you were going here."

The man explained why he appeared behind Lu Tingyun, his tone was as usual, with some laziness in his clarity.

Lu Tingyun lowered his guard slightly, and his whole body no longer tensed secretly: "Gu Yuantian's Liu Yin said that he was looking for someone to the west, so I came here." He asked, "Brother Song came from the palace in the east? There is no one there?" Danger?"

"Returning to the garden..." Song Huaichen repeated, with a slightly mocking smile on his face.This smile can sting people, the arcs on the corners of his eyes are no longer the softness of smiling before saying a word, but have become two blades.

After being stabbed, Lu Tingyun realized why he felt that Song Huaichen was different from a moment ago.

When dealing with Ge Yun, Song Huaichen's expression was cold, he made a decisive decision without mercy, and his swift and resolute actions made the surrounding monks not even know how to react.

The monks didn't stop Song Huai's movements, on the one hand because Song's movements were too fast, and on the other hand because Ge Yun's position was very embarrassing, the monks were not sure how to treat her.

It can be said that Song Huaichen took advantage of this loophole and acted with the calmness of an outsider.

But at this time, with a sarcastic smile, the involuntary feeling of being trapped in the situation overflowed,

Lu Tingyun could tell that Song Huaichen was in a bad mood.

"Brother Song... Song Zhenjun?"

The Jindan is the real person, the Yuanying is the real king, and the deity is the ancestor, and the monks who refine the virtual have not seen it for thousands of years.

"It's a strange name." Song Huaichen laughed, and then replied to Lu Tingyun, "As long as you don't go to the main peak, generally speaking, nothing will happen. Guiyuan Tianju... It's a branch of my sect, and it's the Treasure Pavilion that opens for business. .”

"Doing business?"

"If you want to get one thing, you have to exchange it for another."

"Brother Song, did you get what you want in the east?"

"The price is too high, I can't afford it." Song Huaichen said truthfully.

Lu Tingyun didn't ask what the price was: "It seems that Guiyuan Tianju is really a place for business, and he won't give any discount to his disciples."

Song Huaichen didn't answer the question, and asked who Lu Tingyun was looking for.

"Of course I'm looking for you, Brother Song." Lu Tingyun said, "Now that he's been found, there's no point in moving forward."

The appearance of Song Huaichen did not relieve his sense of oppression caused by the foggy environment. Lu Tingyun wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. He said that his intuition was bluffing people to improve his realm, but the monk's occasional hunch could not be ignored. However, it gave Lu Tingyun a very bad feeling.

"You can go out first, it's safe outside the gate of Guiyuantianju." The meaning revealed in Song Huaichen's words confirmed Lu Tingyun's premonition that Guiyuantianjuzhong was indeed dangerous.

The Treasure Pavilion hides a lot of treasures, so it is impossible to have no defense measures.

Lu Tingyun asked: "How about going to the main summit?"

"Guy Sonoda is the hub of all the organs, and all the formations are located on the main peak. What do you think will happen after you go up?"

"I only saw your junior sister in the east, where are the others? Have you all gone to the main peak?"

Lu Tingyun: "Yes."

"Only the disciples of our sect can go up the main peak, the people outside..." Song Huaichen turned his head, the white mist was so thick that he couldn't see anything, "Do you want to save them?"

Lu Tingyun didn't hesitate: "Help."

Song Huaichen didn't move: "There is a price for saving people on the main peak where Gui Yuan Tian lives."

"What price?"

"A pavement in Pingyang."

As soon as the price was paid, Lu Tingyun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Song Huaichen with deeper eyes.

Pingyang is a city with prosperous commerce, and it is the largest market for monks in the Central Plains to trade goods. Shops with good locations are hard to find.

It's not that Lu Tingyun can't afford it, he happens to have it in his hand.It's not that he is unwilling to exchange the lives of the monks on the main peak with the shop in his hand.But the timing of Song Huaichen's opening was too coincidental.

The shop in Pingyang belonged to Master Lu Tingyun, Master Feisheng, disciple Wu Busheng took care of his funeral, and put this shop under the name of Lu Tingyun who was traveling abroad.

When Lu Tingyun got the shop, Song Huaichen was still in a coma, so it was impossible to know, but now he just mentioned it.

Lu Tingyun looked at Song Huaichen, Song Huaichen had a slight smile on his face, it was thin and hard, it was just a mask.

Lu Tingyun couldn't see anything from the other person's face, so he handed over the store's Qishi with his hands, and said two words in a flat voice: "Save people."

Song Huaichen took Qi Shi: "Okay."

The man took away the stone and raised his hand to chop it. The white mist and the trees were split open. A fork was exposed from the woods moving to both sides. Song Huaichen stepped on it sideways and walked a few feet away with one step. Lu Tingyun wanted to keep up with the ground method, but the method was interrupted by the strong wind of spiritual power.

Song Huaichen's voice came from afar: "Go back to the square along the original road and wait for me."

Lu Tingyun had no choice but to obey.

"Senior Brother Lu!"

On the way back, Lu Tingyun met Liu Qingyan, and the girl who was going east appeared on the path going west.

"Brother Lu, something happened on the main peak!"

Lu Tingyun felt strange: "Didn't you go to the east?"

"I met Senior Song. He said that the palace is very far away. I walked forward for a while and found that it seemed that I couldn't reach the end. I turned back and saw something happened on the main peak."

Because the distance is too far, standing on the platform overlooking the main peak is impossible to see the figure on the peak.You can see the moving trees, the changing positions of the mountain road, and the bursts of intense spiritual light, and you can guess that the people who have reached the main peak are trapped in a maze and are in danger.

Just as Lu Tingyun squinted his eyes, trying to see the trajectory of the maze, a blue light suddenly shot out from the main peak and fell onto the platform with a muffled sound.

The blue light dissipated, and many monks who had climbed the main peak appeared in front of Lu Tingyun.At the same time, Song Huaichen also came out from the path to the west.

"Money and goods are equal." The voice in the air was the same as the one I heard when I first entered the door.

Lu Tingyun glanced at Song Huaichen, and cupped his hands in the direction of the main peak: "Thank you, senior, for your mercy."

"Senior?! Is there someone here? Have you met?!" A cultivator who was sent down by Qingguang stared at Lu Tingyun with wide eyes, lost his composure and yelled, obviously being tortured a lot on the mountain.

Before Lu Tingyun could reply, he heard Lao Qiu who went up to the main peak with everyone and asked, "Obviously this is a sect that we don't know. If you are willing to let us leave who trespassed on the main peak, it must not be some evil heretic, even though you don't know about it." Why was it buried in the ground, but since it reappeared now, there must be plans to revive the sect, I don’t know when Gui Yuantian will accept disciples? We monks who were left alive,” he bowed to the main peak, "I won't begrudge some words, and I'm willing to promote Guiyuan Tianju."

Someone said sharply: "It must not be propaganda, but self-recommendation, right?"

Lu Tingyun glanced at the speaker, he was a student of the same clan as Lao Qiu's Bailu Academy.He turned to look at Song Huaichen, the latter felt his gaze, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he shook his head imperceptibly.

Lu Tingyun didn't know what he was denying by shaking his head, and there were no more voices in the air.

Lao Qiu didn't seem to hear what the disciples of the same clan said, and he didn't give up even if he didn't get a reply. When he saw Song Huaichen, he shifted his target and asked him, "I wonder if this true monarch also met the master who lives in the garden?"

Song Huaichen shook his head and said no: "I have been walking around in the woods since I entered here, and I just came out."

The cultivation base of the Nascent Soul Stage was there, he said no, no one asked if it was true.

Song Huaichen asked: "What have you gained?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Lu Tingyun suggested: "I don't think it's suitable to stay here for a long time, why don't we leave first?"

Everyone is obedient.

They are all golden elixir present, and returning to the garden is unfathomable. It is not they who can find out. At this moment, the monks present all want to return to the sect as soon as possible, report the situation to the teacher personally, and ask them to make a decision on the next step.

The crowd dispersed quickly, and they couldn't even let them take a second look at the Baigu Mountain in Yingshan Lake.

Liu Qingyan was the last one to leave: "Senior Brother Lu, Ge Qing's matter has been investigated, and your poison has been cured, can you go back to the sect?"

Lu Tingyun smiled good-naturedly: "It's hard to follow a gentleman's words. He said that he would return to the sect after he said he would become a Nascent Soul. Wouldn't it be a joke to go back now?"

"How many monks are there in this world who can conceive babies?" Liu Qingyan's voice was filled with thin anger, "Senior brother Lu, you are now at the seventh level of the golden core, and you have crossed two realms in just half a year. Who dares to gossip? Brother Wu is struggling in the sect, how can you, as senior brother Xiong Erfeng, be free outside?"

Chapter 31

"That's wrong." Song Huaichen said suddenly, with a calm tone, "He is not happy outside, do you know how much hardship it will take to advance to the second rank in half a year?"

Liu Qingyan turned her head suspiciously: "Brother Lu's promotion... is it because of Song Zhenjun's teaching?"

Lu Tingyun rushed to speak before Song Huaichen said, "I have benefited a lot from Brother Song."

If he didn't say he wanted to go back, Liu Qingyan knew that he didn't want to go back, so the girl asked Song Huaichen: "Song Zhenjun taught me Brother Lu, what's the reason?"

Song Huaichen originally wanted to deny Liu Qingyan's question, but when Lu Tingyun answered "yes", he could only swallow the answer "no".

"If I don't teach him, he will die." He changed the direction of the conversation simply and rudely, "The promotion to two levels in half a year is not only due to his hard work, but also a manifestation of his talent. Now that he has just advanced, it is exactly what he needs When consolidating his cultivation, it might not be appropriate for him to return to the sect to participate in the intrigue, right?"

Liu Qingyan frowned in disgust: "True Monarch be careful what you say, Guiyizong is not a place of smog."

Song Huaichen smiled, and Lu Tingyun found that since Guiyuan Tianju appeared, Song Huaichen's smiles were all cold and thin fake smiles: "Just now who said that Wu Busheng was struggling in the sect?"

"Even if you exaggerated the facts to persuade Lu Tingyun to go back, for a cultivator who is expected to ascend, it is unwise to get stuck in mundane affairs."

These words made Liu Qingyan blush, and she could no longer argue with Song Huaichen.

But the girl didn't give up, she turned directly to Lu Tingyun, her voice carried the obsession with the youngest daughter: "Brother Lu, are you really unwilling to come back?"

Lu Tingyun smiled softly, but spoke straightforwardly: "If you don't get married, you won't return to the sect."

"Then I'll be waiting in Guiyizong to wait for Brother Lu to return as a baby."

Liu Qingyan finally left, the smile on Lu Tingyun's face faded, and his expression was no longer relaxed: "Brother Song, if I don't go back, is it too unfair to Junior Brother Wu? He is a hundred-year-old golden core, and his talent is not inferior to mine, but Now he has to worry about small and big matters up and down Xiong Er Peak, and he has not made any progress in his cultivation for half a year."

Song Huaichen asked him: "If you hadn't been infected by the Gu, and now you stayed on Xiong'er Peak, would you be the one who worried about these things?"

Lu Tingyun is not stupid, so he can hear that Song Huaichen is trying to comfort him: "Even if I'm here, Brother Wu can't get away completely, but with me, he can indeed have more time to practice."

Song Huaichen said bluntly: "But even so, you still don't want to go back."

Lu Tingyun lowered his voice, his whisper-like tone was gentle, but his words were filled with incomparable confidence: "Brother Song, I'm not boasting, if I were here, Junior Brother Wu would never pass me by, he would never have a bright future. "

Song Huaichen glanced at him, and the corners of his eyes were like a blade cutting a fake smile: "Oh?"

The monk has the ability to keep the face, and his appearance cannot reflect his real age.Song Huaichen's appearance is undoubtedly young, but his gestures, casual eyes always reveal the precipitation of time, combined with his young and handsome appearance, forming a compelling eye-catching.

Lu Tingyun is also young, but he is so young that he looks the same, and it is not a loss to call "Brother Song".

"Brother Song, you said that I am hopeful to ascend, but I am only a golden core now, and I am still far away from the realm of the gods. I still have selfishness. As long as the principle is reasonable, I naturally don't mind thinking more about myself." Lu Tingyun laughed softly, "If I stay in the sect honestly, can the poison on my body be cured? Can I rise two ranks in half a year?"

"I'm going back now, taking on the responsibility of Yifeng, can I still see you?"

Song Huaichen raised his eyebrows, looked at Lu Tingyun with a smile that was not a smile, and the corners of his bent eyes pierced a thin line of truth, no matter how he looked at it, he was ridiculed: "You call me Zhenjun because I am cultivated in the Yuan Dynasty. baby?"

This question was nonsensical, but Lu Tingyun still answered: "That's right."

Song Huaichen continued to ask: "Do you think it's appropriate to speak to Zhenjun Yuanying in this tone?"

"In my eyes, you are my Brother Song, not Song Zhenjun." Lu Tingyun smiled, "Besides, don't you think the title Zhenjun is strange?"

"If you call me Zhenjun every day, I will naturally get used to it." Song Huaichen put his hands together habitually, but found that a sleeve was missing, so he had to put his hands down, "Where are you going next?"

"I plan to follow Brother Song and learn two tricks from my teacher." Lu Tingyun reminded Song Huaichen that he would not be able to go back to Yingshan Lake, "What's the plan for Brother Song?"

"I asked you to ask for a shop in Pingyang, so naturally I want to open a shop there."

Lu Tingyun guessed: "Treasure Pavilion? Auction house?"

Song Huaichen: "Dim sum shop."

Lu Tingyun: "..."

"Pingyang is far away from here." Pingyang City is on the east side where many sects gather and the Mortal Dynasty flourishes. "Would you like to go back and talk to Huang Yaoshi?"

"If he wants, naturally take him along."

"Guiyuan Tianju is a branch of my sect, and the solution to Yingshan Lake's death situation is naturally recorded on the main peak."

"Why do you want to set up a deadlock around Yingshan Lake?"

"I don't know the exact reason, but it must have something to do with the bones in the ground." Song Huaichen said as he walked towards Yingshan Lake.

Lu Tingyun raised his hand and pointed: "The bones are not on the ground, they are on the ground."

Song Huaichen looked in the direction he was pointing, without changing his expression at all: "Yingshan Lake is an isolated village, in my opinion, there is one thing that is very strange."

"Which point?"

"They rarely intermarry with people outside the village."

People with the same surname do not get married, and people in Yingshan Lake also abide by this rule. The population of the village will exceed one hundred, and most of the people with different surnames are related to each other. In a few generations, many surnames will disappear in this mountain village.

Yingshan Lake is still in contact with the outside world. They go to the town to go to the market every month. Even if the people in the town can't imagine it, why do people from other villages they meet in the market seldom get married with people from Yingshan Lake?

The reason is not difficult to ask. During the leisure time teaching the children to read, Song Huaichen wentssip a little bit. No matter the children or adults, the people outside the village showed more or less repulsion. Feng Shui.

"Like Bai Jian's mother, she died so early because she married a foreigner." Someone secretly said to Song Huaichen, "It's also like Grandma Sun's man, who used to be ambiguous with a slut from another village. If you want to marry someone back as a child, wouldn't you die long ago?"

Seeing Song Huaichen's expression of disbelief, the man got anxious and vowed: "Mr. Song, don't believe it, it's not just these two, go ask the elderly people, anyone who marries people from other villages will end badly !"

"I think the problem is not the outsiders, but the aborigines of Yingshan Lake." Song Huaichen looked at Baigu Mountain and saw the gurgling water seeping from the bones into Yingshan Lake, "The spiritual power in Yingshan Lake is too strong Moxiu regards them as a great tonic, and ordinary people will not be able to achieve the balance of yin and yang if they intercourse with them, and accidents will inevitably happen."

"Bai Jian's father didn't live much longer than his mother."

"The magic cultivator absorbs the essence with the method of picking and nourishing. Ordinary people don't know the formula. On the one hand, their vitality will be severely injured, and on the other hand, they will explode and die." Lu Tingyun understood Song Huaichen's meaning, and continued to guess, his gaze was the same as Song Huaichen's , along the Baigu Mountain down to Yingshan Lake, "The aura on Baigu Mountain is extremely strong, but the aura in Yingshanhu Village is really ordinary, but the people in Yingshan Lake are very special, so it can only be Yingshan that makes them special. The lake is full."

"The dead end is centered on Yingshan Lake..." From Lu Tingyun's current perspective, this point can be seen very clearly. Yingshan Lake is at the center of the magic circle. , as if being raised."

"The place where the corpses are kept is extremely gloomy, and the karmic fire is full of dead air, but Yingshan Lake and the people in Yingshan Lake are very normal." Song Huaichen looked away and looked at Lu Tingyun, "This is the most abnormal place I think."

"What is Brother Song going to do?"

"Tell them the range of the formation and the forbidden areas that they cannot go to." Song Huaichen had already prepared a draft, "As for what they do next, I don't care."

"Oh?"

Yingshan Lake was far away, and the gate of the village could be seen. After the formation, someone looked out tremblingly.Those people recognized Song Huaichen and Lu Tingyun, and kept waving at them.

Song Huaichen raised his hand and shook it, indicating that he saw it, and his footsteps and tone were unhurried: "Now the large formation for protecting the mountain in Guiyuantianju has been opened, Yingshan Lake is within the formation, and no monk can easily hurt the people of Yingshan Lake , if they just want to live in peace and stability, the future will be better than before."

"If they go to places they shouldn't go, see things they shouldn't see, or get hurt because they're too curious... I don't care."

Lu Tingyun smiled slightly: "Brother Song, do we want to make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

"I bet you are hard-hearted, you will still help Yingshan Lake people after something happens." Lu Tingyun said, "If you really don't want to care, why bother to think about them so carefully?"

Song Huaichen squinted at him.

Lu Tingyun smiled: "Of course, it's always good to make three chapters in advance."

"I think a lot, and I speak in detail, not for the people of Yingshan Lake, but for you." Song Huaichen said surprisingly, imitating Lu Tingyun, and made a teasing smile, "You are a monk, the formation method Of course, you have to tell them the scope of the forbidden area, the forbidden area that you can’t go to, and the three chapters of the offer. Don’t forget, you taught them even the swordsmanship for self-defense.”

After fighting against the bones and being overthrown by Wanshuo Mountain once, Lu Tingyun, the white-clothed swordsman, still maintains the chicness of the Jindan real person. He bowed to Song Huaichen in a smooth manner, and the smile on his face was divided into respect and jokes. Meaning: "Being able to solve Song Zhenjun's worries and problems is my blessing from several lifetimes of cultivation."

"Solve worries and solve problems." Song Huaichen mocked lightly, "This is a really big word."

Lu Tingyun thought to himself: I'm here to help you solve lifelong affairs, so I can't use too many words.

But after Song Huaichen's courteous "whoever makes it, whoever eats it", Lu Tingyun really didn't dare to say this.

Chapter 32

The translucent barrier at the entrance of Yingshanhu Village swayed slightly in the air, like a layer of ripples.

Behind the enchantment, there were anxious and panicked Yingshanhu people. At the enchantment end, Song Huaichen stopped.

He turned his head to signal Lu Tingyun to go first.

Lu Tingyun glanced at him, neither protecting his body with spiritual power nor trying to break the situation, he walked directly towards the barrier.

He passed through easily.

Song Huaichen walked in following his footsteps.

As soon as the two stepped into the barrier, they were surrounded by people from Yingshan Lake.

"The ground shook and the mountain shook just now. When we saw the mountain dwindle, we thought it had collapsed!"

"A lot of monks flew over the head, not knowing what to do!"

"I thought the mountain had collapsed, but when I calmed down, I realized, oh my god, we ran to the top!"

"Master Lu, do you know what happened?"

"Mr. Song, why did our village suddenly grow up? And your clothes...what's wrong with your hands?"

The two young men were surrounded by panicked villagers. Song Huaichen just listened and did not speak. Lu Tingyun took a step forward without looking at anyone: "You only see the strangeness of the village, but you don't realize that you are different. ?"

"...different?" Yingshanhu people didn't feel that they were different from others at all, "We are no different from others."

"Haven't you ever thought about why Moxiu only arrests you and not others?"

The people of Yingshan Lake speculated: "Because we are the closest to them? They happened to meet us?"

"Xiu Xianzong opened the door to accept disciples, and people from all the villages are rushing to the town. It seems to you that the long road can be completed in a few breaths. If you just arrest people randomly, all the villages around the town will be wiped out—— — Moxiu has no reason to let the people in the town go."

"They caught us... for any particular reason?"

"The reason is naturally that you are different from others, and are especially valuable to monks, especially demon cultivators. As for how to value money, you may not understand it."

"Anyway, Moxiu knows you are special, that's why he focused on Yingshanhu's team."

"Daozhang Lu, this doesn't make sense," an elderly villager retorted, "If Moxiu knew about our specialness early on, why did he wait until now?"

"If they just discovered our difference, then what happened in the past six months is all a coincidence? Isn't it too coincidental?"

"Maybe it's not a coincidence." Lu Tingyun heard Song Huaichen's voice transmission.

Because Song Huaichen hadn't spoken, Song Huaichen had been squeezed out of the crowd unknowingly.

"Before the cave leading to Yingshan Lake, I severely injured Ge Qing. Since they were able to find the keel in the cave, they could find Yingshan Lake along the way. It is not impossible that Yingshan Lake people are special."

Lu Tingyun sent a voice transmission to him: "You mean that we brought all of Yingshan Lake?" He asked Song Huaichen, "So you have to change your mind and be responsible to the people of Yingshan Lake to the end?"

When answering Song Huaichen's voice transmission, Lu Tingyun had a pensive look on his face, as if he was thinking about what the old man said, and when the voice transmission was over - he treated Song Huaichen cautiously, and he didn't dare to use two things at once, for fear that he might accidentally overplay the joke ——He said to the old man: "Time is fate, maybe it's really such a coincidence?"

"The mountain under your feet is called Wanshuo, and there is a cultivation sect called Guiyuan Tianju on the mountain. This sect has been buried in the ground for countless years, and as soon as the servant was born, the leaders of all major cultivation sects returned home one after another. "

"Why is such a powerful sect underground? And why is it alive today?" Lu Tingyun asked questions one after another, "I don't know."

"Just like I don't know why you guys are special."

"The only thing that is certain is that you have a close relationship with this mountain and this sect."

People in Yingshan Lake yearn for cultivation and fear monks. They have almost blind trust in monks when it comes to cultivation affairs that they cannot get involved in.

They believed whatever Lu Tingyun said.

Just like what Song Huaichen said, it was Lu Tingyun who taught Yingshan Lake people self-defense swordsmanship. The villagers have turned from the initial vigilance and hostility to treat him as one of their own, and their trust in him has deepened.

After Lu Tingyun said these words, the noisy villagers fell silent, replaced by deeper worries.

If monks can't explain their origins clearly, how should they deal with themselves?

Lu Tingyun threw a look at Song Huaichen, signaling him to continue.

The man outside the crowd made a gesture of invitation, signaling to Lu Tingyun that there should be a beginning and an end.

Lu Tingyun raised the corners of his mouth, a gentle, comforting smile brightened the eyes of the villagers staring at him, and also moved Song Huaichen's heart, he saw that Lu Tingyun refused to let him go.

It's like being scratched by a soft feather, a little numb and a little itchy.

"Brother Song made some guesses, I think it makes sense." Lu Tingyun started with this sentence, so many people turned their heads to look for Song Huaichen's figure.

"Guiyuan Tianju's mountain guard array blocks the elite monks of all sects. You are on Wanshuo Mountain and within the mountain guard array. No matter how much the monks want to catch you, they can only stare blankly."

"As long as you don't go out of the range of the mountain protection formation, you are safe. The appearance of Gui Yuantianju is a good thing for you—maybe it is because you were discovered that this sect hidden deep in the ground hurried Busy in this world to protect you."

"We can't see through your secrets, probably because we are outsiders. If you have the heart, you will surely find the answer after all, and find the answer faster than these outsiders."

"It's impossible not to care. This is a matter of our life and death." Someone muttered, and most of the villagers nodded in agreement.

"Guiyuan Tianju has protected you, but after all, it is a sect of cultivating immortals, and some places are not allowed to go." Lu Tingyun was lucky and directly carved a simple map on the ground at the entrance of the village, "You can go to these places, but you can't set foot on these places. .”

The villagers discussed and walked around the places they could go, and the impatient ones had already begun to allocate manpower and arrange teams.

While talking, someone suddenly remembered what a foreigner who came out to take charge of the overall situation had said when the village was facing bad luck half a year ago.

"Mr. Song...you once said that you could not leave the village, but today I see that you came in from the outside..." The fence of Yingshan Lake could no longer trap him, "Are you... are you going to leave?"

Being called directly, Song Huaichen had no choice but to answer, he had nothing to hide: "Yes, I'm going to leave." He also didn't forget to bring Lu Tingyun, "I entered Guiyuan Tianju with Daochang Lu, and I helped a little. Daoist Lu promised me that he would take me out to see the world."

Lu Tingyun was amused, did he help a little?The whole scene was clearly dominated by Song Huaichen.

Knowing too many things that he doesn't know, knowing too many methods that he doesn't understand, how can he still say the words "seeing the world"?

Lu Tingyun smiled inwardly, but then he thought about it again, with Song Huaichen's pitiful knowledge of the current cultivation world, this is really a good way to see the world.

He said to Song Huaichen, "I'm not a Taoist priest."

Song Huaichen glanced at him without knowing.

Lu Tingyun voice transmission: "I haven't seen through the world of mortals yet."

Song Huaichen paused, the doubt in his eyes was replaced by a smile.The soft and delicate expression was like a gust of warm wind, blowing a flower in Lu Tingyun's heart. He smiled generously at Song Huaichen, without the reserve that a monk should have.

When the villagers finally dispersed, Huang Yaoshi came up. In front of the crowd, he didn't say anything, but put on a show and bowed to Lu Tingyun, and asked, "Are you still going to my medicine hall?"

Lu Tingyun nodded reservedly to Huang Yaoshi: "Naturally."

When he got to the medicine hall, as soon as the fence gate was closed, the Jindan real person took off his disguise, stepped aside, and motioned for Song Huaichen to speak.

In front of his own people, Song Huaichen briefly explained what really happened.

"Do you want to stay here, or come with us?"

"Of course I went with you." Huang Yaoshi chose the latter without hesitation, "What kind of dim sum shop are you really going to open in Pingyang?" He couldn't understand Song Huaichen's decision.

Lu Tingyun also looked over, he also found it strange.

"Do you think my craft is good?"

"Of course." Lu Tingyun said, "But your cultivation level is higher."

The monks seek the Dao, and only those who know that there is no hope of ascension will find another way out, pick up other skills, and switch to other careers.

From Lu Tingyun's point of view, Song Huaichen was obviously not in this situation.

However, Huang Yaoshi frowned. He glanced at Lu Tingyun and asked Song Huaichen directly, "Why did your cultivation base drop?"

Lu Tingyun's fingers resting on the edge of the table trembled, his face showed no flaws, but his heart was terrified, was it the result of his cultivation in the Nascent Soul stage being lowered?Has the voice dropped a lot?

In Yuanying, there are only two realms of Huashen and Lianxu. Lianxu has not been seen for thousands of years, and Huashen is only a handful. No matter which one Song Huaichen is, it is enough to shake the cultivation world.

And it can be seen that Huang Yaoshi, whose cultivation base has been lowered, will be lower than Song Huaichen?

"My cultivation has not decreased." Song Huaichen replied to Huang Yaoshi in this way, "It's just... a little hidden."

Huang Yaoshi was skeptical, but Lu Tingyun suddenly thought that Song Huaichen's cultivation base changed after he entered the main hall on the east side of Guiyuan Tianju. The man said at the time that the price was too high and he couldn't get what he wanted. For yourself, or for something that you don't want most, but you still need.

And the price is cultivation.

"We are outsiders, and it is obviously impossible to be accepted as disciples by some sect. There are very few ways to obtain information. The market is mixed with fish and dragons, and all kinds of news are flying in the sky. Dim sum shops are convenient for us to collect information. Huang Yaoshi, you need to find weights and measures. You must know that the world is not fair, Lu Tingyun, if you want to transform into a baby, it is best to enter various secret realms to experience, and for me, if I want to find "Zhanchen Jue", I naturally need a well-informed place."

Lu Tingyun could get information about the secret realm from Guiyizong, but now that he is traveling abroad, he may not be given the quota to enter the secret realm assigned by the big sect, and he is not willing to bother Wu Busheng who stays in the sect.

So he smiled and asked him what he should do in the dim sum shop, errand runner?

Song Huaichen smiled: "Who dares to come to the shop where Jindan Daoist acts as a secondary?"

"You are traveling abroad, shouldn't you go to various sects to meet your friends?"

Chapter 33

Lu Tingyun made a sad look: "Brother Song is driving me away?"

Bai Yi Jianxiu had an exaggerated expression, with the corners of his mouth curled down in a sad expression, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Huang Yaoshi on one side didn't know the undercurrent of back and forth between the two of them these past few days, and thought that Song Huaichen really wanted Lu Tingyun to leave, and his expression was somewhat awkward.

Song Huaichen glanced at him, obviously didn't smile, but there was a frivolous smile from the corners of his upturned eyes.

Lu Tingyun was ready to take the move, but he saw Song Huaichen lowered his head, fiddled with a teapot on the table, and said in a calm tone: "I don't know how to leave the shop in Pingyang, wouldn't it be good to give you a place where you can go back anytime? "

Huang Yaoshi only felt that there was some meaning in these words, but he couldn't figure out what it was. He looked suspiciously at the people on both sides. good mood.On the other side, Lu Tingyun seemed to have been punched in the face, with a dumbfounded expression.

The unknown Huang Yaoshi broke the silence dryly: "You two have a really good relationship."

"Otherwise, what would I do to save him and bring him back?" Song Huaichen answered the conversation naturally, without any embarrassment, "Isn't it because he is pleasing to the eye?"

Lu Tingyun raised his eyebrows: "Then do I have to work harder, so that Brother Song won't be allowed to enter the house one day?"

As soon as the word "home" came out, Song Huai
