Elsewhere

As the destination approached, Ji Sheng logically said that his whole body cultivation had been crippled, so it was impossible for him to perceive more things than ordinary people.But for some reason, when the driver turned around and told him that he was about ten kilometers away, he immediately felt a damp breath.

It's not the uncomfortable moisture that I felt on a rainy day.It is indescribable, warm and refreshing.

At this time, Xiao Ni also got into Ji Sheng's neckline and spoke softly.

"I seem to feel something. It's strange."

After hearing this, Ji Sheng was convinced that he was not delusional.He and Xiao Ni were linked together by the blood bond, and it is estimated that even their senses are much closer.

But does this have something to do with the Immortal Cauldron of Creation?

According to the feeling, it should be something related to the aquarium.

He touched Xiao Ni's head, signaling it to be calm.

They don't need to guess randomly, they will know the answer when they arrive at the place.

The car quickly parked in the specially designated parking lot beside Taihu Lake. As soon as Ji Sheng was lifted out of the car by the driver, he felt the breeze in the south of the Yangtze River at the end of winter, which was different from other places.Looking around, you can see the smooth branches of willows on the bank swaying gently, and the pale green lake in the distance is endless, with little waves, gentle and graceful, which is a beautiful scene in the south of the Yangtze River.

Coupled with the already extremely dense humid atmosphere in the air, Ji Sheng felt the wind blowing on his face, and his comfortable pores opened unconsciously.

If there are no other accidents, this is indeed a good place for cultivation.And the water is strong, it can be said that it is tailor-made for Xiaoni.

So Ji Sheng counted the money and gave it to the driver of the chartered car, telling him that he wanted to stay here for a long time, and let him go.

Seeing outsiders leave, Xiao Ni slipped into Ji Sheng's ear very excitedly.

"I love it here! We will live here!"

"As long as you like it." Ji Sheng replied with a smile. "This place has been chosen for you. You can't be lazy in your daily practice. These days, you excused that it was inconvenient in the car, and you followed me to sleep with your head covered at night."

"That's natural. I'm cultivating here, but it's going to go a long way." Xiao Ni raised her head proudly.

"Hehe, let's go around the river." Ji Sheng smiled, rolled his eyes, and controlled the wheelchair to drive towards the lake.

On the edge of Taihu Lake, besides the designated scenic spot, there is actually a village. Ji Sheng has been getting used to seeing strangers looking surprised when they see him, and he is already a little bored, but if he wants to live here for a long time, he will inevitably have to rent a house Board and lodging cannot be escaped.

However, he has been sitting in the car for the past few days, feeling a little bored and depressed, and he is not in a hurry to find a place to live, but continues to walk like a lake.And this walk, even strolled to the sunset west mountain.

There were few tourists by the lake in winter, and Ji Sheng was going to a remote place. By this time, there was no one in sight.

At this time, the sky was dark blue, and because we were far away from the city, we could see the sky dotted with countless stars.

Xiao Ni seemed to have a sense of it, and slipped off Ji Sheng's body and ran to the lake, exhaling spiritual energy, Ji Sheng had nothing to do, so he just stood by Xiao Ni and watched.

He has really become a useless person by now.Except for a lot of money on his body, he has nothing.Even when he was ignorant and ignorant at the beginning, going to the Tianyuan realm was an extravagant hope.

He couldn't mobilize his energy at all.Naturally, you can't use a helmet.

What else can be done?

Ji Sheng sighed dejectedly.

Because Ji Sheng relied on him to fetch things, Ah Zi has been able to get in and out of the Qiankun bag without taboo during this time, and she is very familiar with it.At this time, peeking at Ji Sheng's expression was gloomy, and his heart was very sad.

Why did his Aran think so much in his life?

Scratching her ears and thinking for a while, Ah Zi thought of Aran's way of dealing with loneliness in the past, and with an idea, she turned her head back into the Qiankun bag, pulled out a bamboo flute, and then flew in front of Ji Sheng's eyes.

"Aran, do you play the flute? You used to be not sad like this."

Ji Sheng came back to his senses, holding the bamboo flute on his lap in a daze.

Since the spiritual vein in his body was broken, he never thought of absorbing spiritual energy, and he accidentally forgot the bamboo flute in his bag.

I think the fairy taught him music scores back then, but asked him to study music theory hard, but because he lost his cultivation, he became discouraged and forgot about others' entrustments, which really shouldn't be.

Now Jingsi and Mangji can't be used anymore. Given the current situation, if he uses them forcibly, he will definitely explode and die, but this does not mean that he has no other methods to practice.

"Ah Zi, did Ah Ran like music in the past?"

"Yeah, Aran, don't you like it now? How else would you put this bamboo flute in your bag?"

"I don't remember what happened before Aran. But now I can't play the music I usually use. Do you remember what Aran played before?"

"I will never forget it in my life. When you played the music, Ah Ran, it was the happiest time for me." After Ah Zi finished speaking, she hummed softly.

Ji Sheng listened to it twice, closed his eyes and meditated, and played the flute according to the tune.

The night breeze was slightly cool, blowing the long hair of the jade-like man into disorder. It was dark and shiny, as if it could reflect the stars in the sky.

On the vast lake surface, dots of wave light sway in the wind, which seems to be felt by it.Bi Liao cleared the air, and a flute-sounding minor tune continued to flow, like a fairy falling into the mortal world under the moon, dancing lightly.

Little Ni was concentrating on breathing, but he couldn't hear any sound from the outside world, but suddenly he felt that he was communicating with the essence of the sun and the moon very smoothly, the refined aura surged, and his cultivation really improved by leaps and bounds.

In such an ethereal and melodious flute sound, even a weapon spirit like Ah Zi seemed to feel at peace. It leaned on Ji Sheng's lap, looking at the beautiful night scenery with fascination, as if it had returned to the time it used to spend with A Ran .

Although the sound of the flute is not loud, it does not contain any aura.However, it does contain some kind of miraculous effect, which not only makes nearby spirits swallow the essence more smoothly, but also seems to be able to cross thousands of mountains and rivers in the ears of interested people.

"what happened?"

In the distance, a majestic old man in a white cassock held a cup of tea with his thin but clean fingers, and placed it in front of a man who was suddenly out of his mind.

"Did you hear that?" the man said with a sense of loss.

His eyes looking into the distance are moist, and the emotions in them seem to be hidden deep in the sea of ​​clouds and mist, making it impossible to guess.

"What?" the old man asked strangely.

"I'm going down the mountain."

The man blinked, lowered his head, took the teacup from the stone table, and drank it down in one gulp.

And Ji Sheng, who was at the waterside of Taihu Lake, seemed to feel something unusual even though he was a mortal.While he was playing the flute with his eyes closed, he blended into the moist night wind in a trance.But I never thought that the quiet lake not far away appeared faintly in the dark mind.Then he was in a trance, as if he had entered a state of half asleep and half awake.

Suddenly, I didn't realize where I was, I just drifted with the flow.But after a while, my eyes darkened, and I gradually sank into the water...

The lake was dark at night, but Ji Sheng seemed to know where he should go.Continue to fall slowly.

From time to time, a little undercurrent passed by his side, which seemed to tell him that he had disturbed many sleeping fish.

What is he looking for?

What is calling him...

Finally, the seemingly endless darkness ended.Not far away, a huge gray snail shell appeared.There is a little bit of purple light on it, showing that it is not a mortal thing.

But Ji Sheng didn't stop moving forward, he seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and he was sucked straight into the dark screw mouth.

It turns out that there is still room in the screw hole!

But what happened here really shocked Ji Sheng.There is no other reason, but because there is a plump young woman hidden in the strange shell of the bottomless lake.

The face of the woman inside the snail is the same as that of ordinary people, except that the lips are whiter.But her body was covered with lake algae, so dirty it was hard to tell.If you take a closer look, you can find that there are many thick chains with many lake algae hanging under her feet, which are the main culprits that restrain her here.

When Ji Sheng had countless guesses in his mind, his blue-white eyelids suddenly jumped, and he opened a pair of pure black eyes without white background, which scared him again.

"Who are you?" Ji Sheng asked.

"I am the elite jellyfish of the aquarium, and I was imprisoned here." After she finished speaking, she looked down at her body covered with lake algae, indicating that she could not move. "I have been imprisoned here for more than 1000 years. It is really painful to see the vicissitudes of life outside, but I can't move at all. I heard your flute sound today, which seems to be able to communicate with the world, so I use this dream to lure your soul to come to seek help."

Seeing that the woman who claimed to be a jellyfish could not move at all, Ji Sheng really felt sympathetic.but……

Everything happens for a reason, and if a man got what he did because he did something bad, he doesn't have to worry about it.

"Why are you locked up here?"

"I am a water spirit monster. I was uncomfortable because I was traveling in rivers, lakes and seas, and I was coveted by others because I carried the essence of rivers and rivers in my body. I fell into a trap here 1000 years ago, and I have been firmly bound here since then. Provide the essence of this lake for those traitors to refine their weapons." The jellyfish moved its eyes to the right, motioning Ji Sheng to look to the side. "That is the nectar bucket that our clan was born with. In it, the essence of the five lakes and the sea can be carried. If it is used in the sky, it can bring down torrents of rain. If it is used on land, it can flood all directions."

It was only then that Ji Sheng noticed that there was an ancient small bucket beside him, and when he took a closer look, there were indeed a few drops of silvery four-color liquid at the bottom, which was exactly the same as the essence of Sanjiang he had seen before.

"Originally, I have traveled all over the world, and this bucket will be full in a hundred years. Now I have been imprisoned here, and there are only a few drops." Said the jellyfish.

Ji Sheng is not as naive now as he was back then, and he doesn't really believe in one-sided words.

"Although I sympathize with you very much, how can I know that you are telling the truth? The people who can imprison you are not bad. Tell me, who are they?"

Only then did the jellyfish's dull expression change a bit. She revealed a fierce look in her eyes and gritted her teeth.

"It's the Zhang family of Qingqiu Mountain. You have already entered the threshold of monks, so you must have heard of it. Of course, it is normal for you not to believe me. In three months, it will be the day when the Zhang family comes to fetch the essence of Jianghe. You can hide Here, you can tell if I'm telling the truth by seeing their faces."

So it was one of the four big families that Ji Gen mentioned to him. I didn't expect that such a big family would do such a disdainful thing.

Helpless, even if he really has the ability to hide here without being discovered, he has no other ability to compete with this big faction!

Ji Sheng was stunned for a while, then pondered.

"I have heard of the Zhang family, but my situation is probably different from what you think. I am not a regular monk in this world, and I don't have a master or brother. Besides, I have injuries on my body and I can't use any spiritual power. If you can't help them, you won't be able to help..."

The jellyfish's black eyes were fixed on Ji Sheng again, and its white lips were slightly parted.

"I can tell from the sound of your flute that you are not taking the normal path of human cultivation... and your soul has made a contract with the aquarium, otherwise I can't easily invite you here. If you are willing to help me, I can naturally teach you many aquarium secrets , to repay you."

Ji Sheng smiled wryly.

"But it's not because I have nothing to do that I can't help you. It's because my meridians are all damaged. I'm afraid I won't be able to recover in my lifetime. You can be called a disabled person..."

The jellyfish was also taken aback.

She didn't see it.But for the first time in a thousand years, the hope of saving her is about to disappear like this?No, she is not reconciled.

"How did you get hurt?"

Ji Sheng was silent for a while, then shook his head.

"I don't want to say more."

"Then you are willing to let me see your body, maybe there is a way to heal your injury." The jellyfish said.

Hearing this, Ji Sheng had a little hope in his heart.He has thoroughly tasted the feeling of being a disabled person during this period of time. If there is a way for him to practice again, even if he can stand up on his own and take care of his life, it will be much better than now.

"Of course I'm willing to give it a try. But I can't use my aura right now, so how can I come down to find you without the water-avoiding formula?"

"That's good 7. As long as you are willing to come, I'm afraid there is no way?" The jellyfish opened its mouth and spit out a round white bead, and then a pair of black pupils shot out an invisible ray of light at the same time.When Ji Sheng saw it, he felt dizzy, and he seemed to be sucked out, and then all the people who came from before rushed past him, until they came out of the water and hit the wheelchair figure by the lake.
