Bai Ze

"Why?" Bai Ze has become accustomed to the jade slips in the realm of comprehension. Not only can he send messages, but he can also record all the information in the jade slips, such as exercises. A palm-sized jade slip is pasted on his forehead. It will automatically enter the mind, and you will learn.

Of course, success in cultivation depends on one's aptitude.

But it is definitely much faster than going to school. Back then, he was too young and his mind was immature, so he couldn't use jade slips, so his master could only teach him how to read and write, and then he learned the drowning technique bit by bit.

Later, when he passed by, he began to look at the jade slips, a very convenient method.

If you had this kind of learning method in your previous life, how many postdoctoral fellows would you have!

"Evil cultivators' methods are insidious, and we are on guard against each other, not to mention the narration in the jade slips that we don't know? What if the narration is wrong on purpose? Besides, some evil cultivators will play tricks on the jade slips. It's not like this kind of thing has never happened. But, so don’t stick all the jade slips on your forehead.” Yun Tian told him: “It is said that the brains of evil cultivators are different from normal cultivators, once they get mad, they will end up in a state of disintegration, it seems that it has something to do with their skills. In short, they seldom use jade slips, and basically use this method to record things."

Bai Ze touched his forehead: "Okay."

The two of them continued to study the map, but they didn't understand it no matter how they looked at it. It happened that Chang Yongqing, the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion, personally brought a plate of fish brains into Qingbo Garden: "Seniors, this is just made by the kitchen. Good fish brain."

The chef in the kitchen is very concerned about Xiao Jiuer. Every day in the kitchen, there are fish stews, or boiled fish balls. There are three or five big fish killed, and he picks out the brains of the fish. Send it to Jiu'er alone.

"Jiu'er has a mouthful to eat." Bai Ze complained, but he still took the food in his hands. Over there, Jiu'er was already squatting there obediently, waiting to eat his favorite fish brain.

"Here are two more dishes of dim sum, which are newly made in the kitchen. They use spiritual grains, which are not so sweet. You two have a taste." In addition to fish brains, there are two plates of dim sum, one of which is made of spiritual grains Rice cakes, a plate of pork jerky.

They are all made according to the taste of the two seniors. Although the spiritual energy is not so abundant, it is a kind of spiritual food at any rate.

"Oh, let's put it here." Yun Tian casually pointed to a place, he was still looking at the map, and the more he looked at it, the more he frowned, the painting was indeed not very good.

When Chang Yongqing put down his things, he glanced at the map: "Hey? This map...why does it look so familiar?"

"You know this map?" Yun Tian was quite surprised.

"It looks familiar... I seem to have seen it in the Qinghe City Chronicle." Chang Yongqing patted his head: "Yes, it is in the Qinghe City Chronicle, which is a book like the history of the city compiled by ordinary people. , The junior has seen it a few times, and the writing is a bit muddled, and the map is barely drawn."

"Bring me to have a look." If there is Qinghe Chengzhi, it is better than the two of them getting dizzy from looking at the map.

"Hey, junior, go and get it now." Chang Yongqing ran out in a hurry.

Bai Ze was watching Jiu'er eat fish brains: "Can what he said make sense?"

"Take a look, it's really hard to see anything on this map." Yun Tian felt worried.

After a while, Chang Yongqing brought a big box over: "Here are all Qinghe City Chronicles, which were re-transcribed and sorted out by the scribes of the City Lord's Mansion later. The previous ones are all rotten."

"So much?" Bai Ze was taken aback.

Okay, the boss has a box, opened it and looked inside, it turned out to be more than two dozen "Qinghe City Chronicles", opened one casually and took a look: "This was compiled at the beginning after the city was built. It turns out that the first generation of city lords also A loose cultivator, named Qinghe, and this place is called Qinghe City."

"The younger generation heard from those documents that Qinghe City is divided into more than [-] stages, and each stage is ruled by a small family, so these books are also divided into more than [-] books, each of which records the events of a ruling period. "Chang Yongqing said: "Less than a hundred years have passed since the time of our city lord, so at least."

Others are thick and thin, and there are only one book.

"Oh, let's take a look at this, where do we go after reading it?" Bai Ze's habit is to return books properly after borrowing them. He used to read a lot of books in the university library, a habit he developed. .

"No, this junior remembers seeing it in... the first book... this junior will help you find it, and if you run out, this junior will send it back to them. The clerks value their books." Chang Yongqing moved out the first Qinghe City Chronicle.

There are 28 books in total. This is the first casual cultivator of Longevity. The cultivation of Mahayana period has lived for tens of thousands of years, and it has also been in charge of this city for tens of thousands of years. At that time, Qinghe City had a large area.

At that time, it was a very prosperous new city, and there were many things recorded on it. Qinghe City governed eight towns, sixteen villages, and tens of thousands of hectares of spiritual fields. Once a child is born, it is the foundation building period.

"Good time!" Bai Ze sighed.

"Yeah, but it's a bit like a myth and legend. Where can there be such a good thing? You are born with a foundation, so you don't need to practice." Chang Yongqing was happy: "I found it."

He found the map on the back page of the third book.

The first book talks about all kinds of celebrities in Qinghe City, and the first one recorded is Immortal Qingshan.

But it was only said that the immortal had ascended to the Tao, not that he had transformed into Qinghe from the immortal.

But there are such legends in many places, and far-fetched ones abound.

In the world of comprehension, there is no "auspicious place" for immortals to ascend!

So everyone should just watch it for fun.

In the beginning, Chang Yongqing was the same, but now, Bai Ze is reading this book.

The above said that after the Immortal Qingshan ascended to the ascension, some people came to this place, thinking that the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, and there must be outstanding people!

So Qinghe City was established, and the Qinghe River passed through the city, bringing clean water and taking away turbid water.

After ruling for tens of thousands of years, this cultivator has reached the end of his lifespan. His successor is his closed disciple, and another era begins. This disciple has sons and daughters, and finally becomes a small family of cultivators...

In this way, in the last record, there are more than a dozen maps, all of which were within the scope of Qinghe City at that time.

It used to be very big, but with the level of cultivation of the ruler of Qinghe City, the map has also changed.

If the cultivation base is high, the occupied area will be large; if the cultivation base is low, the occupied area will be small. This is a rule, and Master Qinghe is not the lowest among all the city lords, but he is a casual cultivator and has no backing , so Qinghe City managed to maintain the current situation.

It is already shrunk and cannot be shrunk any further.

In the place where he ruled, there was only one town and two villages.

There is no way to compare with the previous scale, and the population has only maintained a very small growth.

Among the dozen or so maps, there really was one that was similar to the one they got, but it was scaled down according to a certain ratio. Bai Ze looked at it seriously: "Is this it?"

"Yes, it's this one. This one is shrunken down, but the artistry is good." Yun Tian looked at it: "Is there any explanation on it?"

"Yes, it says that this is the map drawn when the boundary was first defined; and this is the map that was defined after the death of the first city lord." Bai Ze pointed to the crude map and gestured: "Look It looks like, this location is...?"

"It's the source of Qinghe City, the Qinghe Pool!" Chang Yongqing pointed to the middle position and said, "That's right, it's here."

"Qinghe pool?" The two looked at the red spot in the middle.

Chang Yongqing packed up his things and sent them back to the clerks.

"The Qinghe Pool should be the source of the Qinghe River. It is a pool of running water. It is very large and deep. The water source is clear, so the water in the Qinghe River is also crystal clear." Bai Ze clicked his mouth: "It is only then that we can raise such a good bridesmaid fish. "

The fish tastes good, is highly nutritious, and full of aura.

"Could it be that the cave is at the bottom of the water pool?" Yun Tian guessed: "Otherwise, how could the place be a deep pool? Or a deep pool with running water?"

"No, the Immortal of Qingshan, hearing the name, is he an earth-type monk?" Bai Ze said, "Although it can't be said that fire and water are incompatible, but a monk with an earth-type technique can build a cave under the water?"

This kind of thing is too unreasonable.

"But didn't you say before that the cave was built on the mountainside? Has the mountainside sunk into the ground?" Yun Tian didn't understand: "This deep pool has nothing to do with the mountainside!"

"I haven't heard of any earthquakes here? How many years, there is only one big green mountain and one small green mountain here, let alone a cave on the mountainside, even if there is no place on the mountain that is suitable as a cave, there are a few The caves were built by the hunters and woodcutters at the foot of the mountain, in order to shelter from the wind and rain, or if something happened and they couldn’t go down the mountain, they would spend the night in the cave, which was a temporary foothold.” These Bai Ze still listened to Wen Jingshan. Having said that, Wen Jingshan said at that time that if there were really immortal relics there, they would have been full of aura long ago. Why should their masters and apprentices pay out of their pockets every year to subsidize Qingshui City?

When the two of them were worrying, Master Qinghe came over.

He came to return something, the thousand-year-old ice crystal the size of a pillow that Bai Ze had given him.

"The younger generation has used it for several days, and the effect is very good. Now you two are going to enter the immortal ruins that don't know whether it is a danger or a trap. The two seniors take this thing with you. If you encounter a place like a fantasy, this thing can Keep the two seniors in mind." Master Qinghe held the thing respectfully to Bai Ze with both hands: "Also, the two seniors, check if Jiu'er is left behind? There are many dangers there, you two take it with you, What an inconvenience."

This is something he has long wanted to say.

If you want to go out on an adventure, you should pack lightly. Senior Bai Ze is carrying a cat bag, and he also raises a little milk cat. If there is any danger, the milk cat will not be scared?

The cat bag is made of good material, but it can’t stand Wanli. Everyone likes cute little creatures, and he is no exception. He doesn’t know how to keep pets. The master has adventures everywhere.

"Mia!" Jiu'er got angry when he heard it, pointed his hairy butt at him, and yelled angrily, why did he let himself stay?

They went together everywhere, why did they throw him out alone this time?

Looking up at Bai Ze again, the cat's eyes are cold, if he dares to entrust himself to someone to take care of him, he will definitely jump up and down, scratching the door here every day.

"Don't worry, Jiu'er is better than the two of us." Bai Ze said dumbfoundedly: "You keep the things, I still have a lot. You are very kind to the people under your rule, and you have a kind heart. Your achievements in the future are limitless. This thing Leave a memory for you."

If Master Qinghe didn't return it, Bai Ze didn't plan to take it.

But then he would respect Master Qinghe at a respectful distance, such a person is not worthy of his deep friendship.

It's different now, Master Qinghe is not greedy for benefits, but more concerned about Jiu'er's safety, which makes Bai Zelong very happy.

Good man!

Master Qinghe was a little dumbfounded: "Senior Bai Ze, this is a thousand-year-old ice crystal... such a large piece of thousand-year-old ice crystal."

Thinking about when he was poisoned just now, the disciples went to buy thousand-year-old ice crystals, but the result was that there was no market for them, and no one sold such treasures at all.

Not to mention the millennium ice crystals, even the ice lotus is not sold, but the snow lotus is available, but the price is quite expensive. At that time, the apprentices wanted to go bankrupt and heal his illness.

"I have plenty of such large ice crystals. You can keep them. If you think you are wasting such a large piece of ice crystals, cut them up and give each of your filial disciples a piece. It is said that this thing is worn around the neck. It can prevent you from going crazy." Bai Ze waved his hand carelessly: "Go, we will leave tomorrow, if you are afraid of harming the innocent, you can move out the residents here, but I don't think it is necessary, we are going It’s Qinghe Pool, it’s a long way from here.”

"Qinghe pool?" Master Qinghe was stunned when he heard it: "The source of Qinghe City!"

The Qinghe Pool is hundreds of miles away from Qinghe City, and the hundreds of miles are covered with high mountains and dense forests. Actually, the water of Qinghe River doesn’t always flow on the ground, and several places are underground channels. knew.

"Yes, let's take a look over there tomorrow." Bai Ze said, "It's probably there."

"Really? This junior really didn't notice. If it's far away from Qinghe City, of course there's no problem." It's far away, and the safety here is guaranteed, so he won't relocate in a waste of time and money. He is just a little curious: "But, why? Shao Ming, but they want to come to my Qinghe City?"

"They probably thought that the immortal ruins were in the city. After all, legends circulate here." Yuntian guessed: "If they knew it was at the Qinghe Pool, they would definitely not harass you. After all, the fewer people who know about it, the more good."

"So that's how it is!" The other party made a mistake in the relationship.

Master Qinghe thanked him again and again before leaving, and went back to tell his disciples that it was good that he didn't need to move.

In the evening, the chef in the back kitchen knew that they were leaving tomorrow, so he tried his best to cook a very rich whole fish feast.

Sliced ​​fish, boiled fish balls, braised in soy sauce, and steamed are all available.

In addition, twenty bowls of fish brains were given to Bai Ze as food for Jiu'er.

Bai Ze put it in the storage bag, and let him and Yun Tian feast on the rest.

In the early morning of the next day, the two of them ate the fish porridge, and flew away in a silver plate with a marigold. Bai Ze left Master Qinghe and the others with the formations and formations he had arranged here, at least they could It is no problem to use the last 8000 years.

According to the records on the map, the two of them crossed Daqing Mountain and Xiaoqing Mountain, then Qinghegou, and after passing Qinghegou, they came to Qingheshan.

The reason why it is called "Qinghe Mountain" is because it is the birthplace of Qinghe.

Qinghe Mountain is a stone mountain. There is not much soil on it, and there are fewer things growing on it, but there are many big green stones exposed. Qinghe Pool is on the mountainside. It is a very deep and large pool. Above the pool is a The water flowing down from the spring of living water forms a waterfall with a small drop. Below the waterfall is the Qinghe pool. The water in the pool is very deep, but after years of flowing down like this, it is also full. The overflowing water is very clear. The waterway under the pool becomes a river, which is Qinghe River.

The water pool is very large, and there are indeed many bridesmaid fish in it, and more bridesmaid fish are wandering in the Qinghe River and multiplying.

But there are more bridesmaid fish in the pool, bigger and more energetic.

"How to find this?" Yun Tian looked around: "There is not even a reference object, just a small waterfall, a pool, and a spring of living water."

In winter, it is because of the running water that it is not frozen. In the north, it has been frozen for thousands of miles by now.

But even so, the water of the Qinghe River is flowing, but the banks of the river are covered with snow. From the sky, one can see a black jade belt flowing slowly amidst the silver, which is quite interesting.

Bai Ze looked around, felt it, thought for a while, and asked Yuntian: "Have you heard of Monkey King Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven in the Water Curtain Cave of Huaguo Mountain?"

"What, what? You say so much in one breath, don't you panic?" Yun Tian looked at him dumbfounded: "Next time we will talk separately."

Saying so much in one breath, it must be awkward for him.

"No, I guessed a possibility." Bai Ze pulled him onto the calendula silver plate, wrapped the cat on his back, drove the calendula silver plate, and rushed towards the waterfall.

"Hey!" Yun Tian's eyes widened.

"Don't worry, I won't be tempted to commit suicide, I'll give it a try." Bai Ze said, "I hope my guess is correct."

Yun Tian fell silent.

He can do whatever he wants, not to mention that even if they bump into each other, they won't be hurt.

The result was unexpected, Bai Ze drove into the waterfall with the golden calendula silver plate...behind the waterfall, there is a hidden cave.

It turns out that the waterfall is not high at all, at most three meters high, and the water flow is not too fast, but the water flow is relatively large, and the water wall is very thick. Their silver marigold plate rushed through the water wall and stopped directly behind the waterfall. .

There is a cave behind the waterfall. There are obvious traces of man-made excavation on both sides of the cave, because the cave wall is very smooth and there is a faint light inside.

"I guessed it right!" Bai Ze clenched his fist: "Come on, let's go in and have a look, what a place inside."
