A carriage drove up not far away. The carriage was pulled by two white horses. The white horses' hair was neat and shiny, and their bodies were tall and strong.

The carriage was gleaming with gold and looked exquisite and luxurious. There was a row of blue wind chimes hanging at the door of the carriage. They must have made the sound just now.

Song Shiyin naturally heard everyone's exclamations. They were not surprised by the luxurious carriage, but they were surprised that someone came to meet the immortal fate, but did not "kill the mortal world".

[The golden carriage stopped slowly, and the open space seemed to be a little different because of this carriage. The wind chimes rang, and white hands gently lifted the door curtain, and a girl dressed as a maid came out. She was neatly dressed, with no clothes on her clothes.

The hair was neatly combed where there was a little wrinkle, and the hair accessories on the head exuded a slight luster.

The maids came out one after another, eight in total. They jumped out of the car and lined up on both sides of the carriage. The maids were all exquisite. From their clothes to their appearance and temperament, it was surprising that such a person was just a maid.

.

At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on this carriage. With such a pomp, the owner of the carriage must be rich or noble. As expected, the carriage made noise again.

The slender hand lifted up the door curtain. The door curtain was originally white, but the hand made it even whiter. With the sound of tinkling wind chimes, the person inside finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

A girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, with skin as white as snow, a waist as thick as a bunch of silk, eyebrows like green feathers, eyes like water apricots, and lips that are not dotted but red. She wears a pale-colored ancient patterned double-butterfly cloud-shaped thousand-water skirt, and her hair is tied with green silk

The hair accessories are not too complicated, just a lotus flower and a few butterfly clips for decoration.

The girl stood on the carriage, raising her head slightly and looking at the top of the fairy mountain. The sun was shining on the girl's dress, and the breeze was blowing, like a goddess coming to the world.]

Song Shiyin observed everyone's reactions, ranging from shock at seeing the carriage to surprise at seeing Du Yunxi's appearance and finally gloating because it seemed that she had not completed any step towards becoming an immortal.

This is the first appearance of the heroine Du Yunxi in the book "Traveling in the Clouds". It is exactly as described in the original text, and everyone's eyes are on her.

Du Yunxi stepped out of the carriage with the help of the maid, took the prepared luggage, turned around and walked towards the mountain. In these few steps, she walked in front of everyone's attention.

The crowd became commotion again after Du Yunxi's carriage had gone away. People they knew and didn't know began to whisper. The topic of discussion was whether Du Yunxi's trip would be successful. Most people held a negative view, and some even cursed.

Du Yunxi "does not know the etiquette and does not respect the immortal master", and at the same time silently prayed that "her behavior must not affect herself or affect her own immortal fate."

Waiting here was not an option. More and more people decided to go to the Fairy Mountain after hesitation, and most of the people at the foot of the mountain suddenly disappeared.

"Shiyin, let's go too." Bian Tingyu said, standing up and patting the dust on her dress, then stretched out her hand to pull Song Shiyin up.

Song Shiyin nodded and walked towards the fairy mountain with Bian Tingyu.

As soon as they stepped into the fairy mountain, everyone's sight was blocked by the thick fog and they lost their direction. The thick fog here is not just as simple as covering the sight, it can block the five senses and paralyze the mind.

The so-called Immortal Mountain is actually a natural barrier. To the north of the Immortal Mountain are the twelve cities where mortals live, and to the south of the Immortal Mountain are the nine realms of the immortal world. In addition to the mountains, there are also barriers formed by spiritual energy. The mountains

Because the original mist was contaminated with spiritual energy, it became thicker and lasted for a long time, and spiritual energy itself was not a "panacea" for mortals without spiritual roots.

Then the matter of hitting the fairyland becomes very simple, just find the direction in the thick fog, climb over the mountains, and pass through the barrier, that's it.

The "fate" in the destiny of immortality lies in whether you have spiritual roots. Only those with spiritual roots can stay in an environment filled with spiritual energy for a long time. The superior the spiritual roots, the stronger the ability to withstand spiritual energy, and the more able they can be based on the spiritual energy.

With guidance, you can find the direction, and you will be able to discover the weak points in the barrier, and thus enter the world of immortality.

Du Yunxi is not a reckless person, and her family will not allow her to be so "disrespectful of the immortal master". All this is because the Du family has a spiritual stone. As the Du family who hosted the immortal at that time, during the "Ask for Fate"

In fact, it is slightly hidden from the public.

"Master Immortal, you have been here for so many days and have helped us a lot, but one day you will leave one day. At that time, we have no immortal means. If another disaster strikes, the people will not be able to withstand it..."

On this day, someone tentatively asked the immortal master.

This question was answered on the first day the immortals came.

They will set up formations under the city to protect the city, and in addition, they will kill all the ferocious beasts in the twelve cities, leaving no hidden dangers.

"You also want to cultivate immortality?" The immortal master pointed out their intention directly.

"Yes, yes... Immortal Master, maybe it's a bit presumptuous to ask this, but we also want to have some ability to protect ourselves." The person who asked did not expect the Immortal Master's answer to be so straightforward. He withstood the pressure and explained his words.

After a while.

"As long as it's fate." After the immortal master finished speaking, everyone present looked at each other.

It seems to be the answer, but who knows what "fate" is?

The Immortal Master did not explain, and the scene became awkward for a moment. No one dared to speak. Some even thought that the previous words had angered the Immortal Master.

At night, the immortal master came to the courtyard as usual and counted the moon.

"Master Immortal, what does it mean to be destined?" Du Tiancheng, the head of the Du family at that time, asked. He looked at the white-clothed immortal in front of him, who was the same color as the moon in the dark night, and whose temperament was out of the world.

The immortal thought for a moment, then took out a stone out of thin air and handed it to Du Tiancheng.

This stone is only the size of a baby's fist. It is completely white, resembling jade but not jade, and its tentacles are cold.

"This thing is called the Spirit Testing Stone. Hold it in your hand. If it shines, come to the mountains south of Lingcheng." Hearing the immortal master's words, Du Tiancheng couldn't help but hold the Spirit Testing Stone in his hand.

There was no reaction from the spiritual stone.

The immortal master didn't speak again. Du Tiancheng hid his disappointment and turned around to leave.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Song Shiyin held Bian Tingyu's hand and found the direction in the thick fog.

"Why is there such a thick fog in this fairy mountain? I haven't heard anyone mention it before." Bian Tingyu said as she waved her hand, trying to disperse the thick fog.

"Maybe they lost their way after coming in and couldn't find their way back." Song Shiyin calmly expressed his shocking speculation. Did those people who were rumored to have successfully entered the world of immortality successfully entered the world of immortality?

Did he die in the thick fog?

For a moment, neither of them spoke, and even the air was silent.

"It doesn't matter, we have come, we have to go out no matter what. Shiyin, which way to go, I listen to you." Bian Tingyu spoke firmly and refused to admit defeat.

Song Shiyin closed her eyes and calmed down to sense it. She led Bian Tingyu towards the direction of rich spiritual energy.

The fog in the mountains made it impossible to tell time. She didn't know how long she had been walking, maybe a quarter of an hour, maybe an hour. Song Shiyin felt Bian Tingyu's hand holding her tighter and tighter.

"Shiyin, let's talk, it's too quiet around here." I was a little afraid, but Bian Tingyu didn't say this.

But her trembling voice gave her away.

The two talked about the fun things they did together when they were children.

"At that time, I took you to buy pears, but the boss saw that we were young and lied to us. Finally, I bought two pears for ten taels of silver and went back. My mother gave me a scolding, so I went to the boss angrily.

To settle the accounts, it turned out that he had greased the soles of his feet long ago..." Bian Tingyu said and laughed, recalling the past is always happy.

Every time he said something, Song Shiyin responded. Most of the time, Bian Tingyu was talking and Song Shiyin was listening.

There was a "click" sound, and Song Shiyin stepped on something unknown. The sound broke the silence, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Bian Tingyu stretched out her hand to protect Song Shiyin behind her, and then slowly backed away. The surrounding was so quiet that she could clearly hear the breathing of the two of them.

Nothing happened. Bian Tingyu walked a few steps and then slowly squatted down. In the mist, she vaguely saw a human leg bone. Bian Tingyu couldn't help being frightened and took a breath. Song Shiyin's previous guess might be that

It's true.

"Tingyu, what is it?" Song Shiyin asked in a very soft voice, a little trembling. She also saw this leg bone, and the danger in the thick fog was revealed at this time.

"It's just a branch, it's nothing. Let's keep walking." Bian Tingyu replied. Song Shiyin was timid, so she could feel this kind of scary thing alone.

They must speed up their progress, otherwise their thin clothes will not be able to bear it when the temperature drops in the evening. The consequences of catching a cold and getting sick here are obvious. Moreover, there are likely to be wild beasts at night in the mountains. These wild beasts are contaminated with spiritual energy all year round, and their strength is not ordinary wild beasts.

In comparison, the night is too dangerous for the two of them.

Song Shiyin began to quicken his pace. Bian Tingyu seemed to have thought of something and kept up with Song Shiyin's pace. The "squeaking" sound of the clothes rubbing against each other became more obvious in the quiet environment.

Plans often don't change quickly. The two of them had not taken a few steps when they heard a scalp-numbing "hissing" sound, and Song Shiyin had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, looking towards the source of the sound, through the thick fog, a pair of eyes the size of mung beans glowed slightly red, indicating that danger was approaching.

"Run!" Song Shiyin grabbed Bian Tingyu's arm and ran quickly. How could a human's speed be compared to a hunter in nature? Besides, this was not an ordinary python.

With the whistling wind in their ears and the friction of animals crawling on the ground behind them, Song Shiyin and Bian Tingyu could only run, running forward as hard as they could.

The escape route was not smooth. The road to Fairy Mountain was not a smooth road, and there was thick fog. The two of them always tripped over stones and branches on the ground, which greatly affected the speed of their escape.

"Shiyin, run!" After hearing Bian Tingyu's voice, Song Shiyin turned around suddenly and saw Bian Tingyu facing a giant python with a yellow-white head and belly and a brown back. She raised the python with one hand.

The luggage was bitten by the python, and her body was tightly wrapped by the python. Under the pressure, Bian Tingyu's face began to become congested and red.

Under the critical situation, Song Shiyin could not care about anything else. He could only release his spiritual consciousness and continue to attack the giant python's brain. The giant python stopped in pain and was in a daze for a moment. Song Shiyin took this opportunity to pull Bian Tingyu out of the stack of snakes.

Fished it out of the body.

Song Shiyin pulled Bian Tingyu, who had not yet recovered, to continue running forward and began her escape journey again.

Bian Tingyu coughed while running. Before she could catch her breath when being entangled by the giant python, she started running with all her strength again. Song Shiyin was worried that she would be out of breath, but the current situation was urgent and she was dying every second.

Wandering around the edges.

The further away from the giant python, the weaker Song Shiyin's attack will be. After the giant python reacts, it will soon catch up. It is not a wise choice to stop and rest at this time.

Before entering the world of immortality, Song Shiyin could not expose himself too much. Temporarily holding back the giant python was the limit.

Stretching his legs, alternating, relying solely on the instinct to escape, Song Shiyin felt as if there was a fire in his throat, burning and smoking, his steps became heavier and heavier, the sweat on his forehead fell drop by drop, his face was covered with sweat, and his heart felt like it was about to

Jump out of the body.

Bian Tingyu's condition was even worse than hers. Her face was flushed and she had difficulty breathing. Her whole body was leaning forward as if she was about to fall. Her long dress covered her legs, making running even more difficult.

After running for a while, Song Shiyin didn't hear the sound of the giant python again, nor did she sense the presence of other creatures around her. Her tense nerves relaxed slightly. After turning off her consciousness, she pulled Bian Tingyu and slowly stopped.

Her legs were shaking uncontrollably, as if they were filled with lead. She could only bend over and hold her knees with both hands to stabilize her body.

"Let's go slowly, okay?"

Bian Tingyu responded softly.

The temperature gradually dropped, and the cold wind blew on her sweat-wet clothes. Song Shiyin shivered. The temperature in the fairy mountain was lower than she expected. The night would only get colder. The fire would attract animals that hunt at night. They

Unable to light a fire, she could only resist. She might freeze them to death here.

Song Shiyin held Bian Tingyu's hand. She absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy into her body, and then quickly transferred the spiritual energy into Bian Tingyu's body to relieve her discomfort.

Bian Tingyu almost leaned completely against Song Shiyin. Song Shiyin simply put his hands through Bian Tingyu's armpits, put her arms on his shoulders, and supported her.

Song Shiyin kept calling Bian Tingyu's name to keep her awake, but Bian Tingyu's responses became weaker and weaker.
