Volume 1 Qingyang Mountain Chapter 28 The Returnee
After calming down, she found two large golden characters - "Twenty" - appearing next to her spiritual root. What was going on? Before she could take a closer look, the characters disappeared.
At the same time, a voice sounded in my mind, "Little fox."
"Little Stone! You're awake!" Sure enough, there was an extra jade stone above the Soul Sea. She wanted to enter the Soul Sea, and she had many questions to ask him. She didn't have time to ask him last time.
Samsara explained to her: "Killing the fourth-level monster can get twenty merits, killing the second-level monster can get one hundred merits, and the semi-demonized second-level monster is equivalent to the fourth-level monster. If a monk wants to ascend, he must
After one hundred thousand merits, my strength is exhausted and I need merits to stay awake."
"The number that just appeared is merit? As long as I kill more monsters, I can gain merit and you can recover? You haven't told me yet, what do you want me to do for you?"
"help me--"
There was another indistinct sound, followed by a period of silence. Little Shitou would always say something that the fox couldn't understand. That's all, I'll ask him carefully when I go back to the Soul Sea.
"Little fox! Congratulations on passing the exam! It's so amazing, you didn't even use a trace of demon power! You killed the fourth-level demon beast with your bare hands!" As the butterfly demon said it, he turned his attention to Silver Snake, a semi-demonized second-level demon beast.
It is equivalent to a fourth-level monster. It is not an exaggeration to say it is a fourth-level monster.
The butterfly demon probably means: The little fox doesn’t even need to use the demonic power to kill the fourth-level monster, you stinking snake can do it on your own!
Silver Snake snorted coldly, his eyes were terrifyingly cold.
For some reason, Silver Snake seemed to have more murderous intent towards her. Even though Silver Snake was obviously a level four monster, he was not afraid of her at all. She even had an inexplicable sense of fear towards him, as well as some other unexplainable emotions.
Have you seen a silver snake somewhere?
"Congratulations."
A gentle voice interrupted her thoughts, and her body was immediately wrapped in a thick robe. Su Yi knelt down and dusted off the top of her head, helped her put on her hat, and tied the laces into a knot.
His fingers are slender and his palms are very warm. He obviously also has ice spirit roots, so why isn't he cold?
"What are you thinking about? There is still an hour before the barrier is completely repaired. Let's rest in Wuyou Town tonight and go back tomorrow." Su Yi explained the current situation to her and asked again: "There is a pastry shop in the town. Is there a pastry shop you can think of?
eat?"
She had read about pastries in books, saying they were soft, glutinous, and delicious food. She hadn't eaten anything in a long time.
"Little fox, please agree! I want to eat flower cakes!" said the butterfly demon.
Hua Ruxue nodded in agreement. If the butterfly demon wanted to eat something, it must be delicious. Speaking of it, her favorite in the past seemed to be candies.
At that time, not only the demons, but also the monks knew that there was a fox in Xueji Pavilion who loved to eat sweets. Later, they said that foxes did not eat sweets, so she never ate them again.
Su Yi actually offered to take her to eat today, so is it really like what Su He said, when she passes the test, Su Yi will formally contract her?
Although she doesn't like Su Yi yet and doesn't want to be contracted, it is still better than the temporary contract in her hand.
Before she could be happy, Su Yi's voice sounded above her head again: "How about 30% off today's expenses?"
Hua Ruxue: "..."
You know Su Yi can't say anything good! You're a black-hearted guy! If the cat demon kills the semi-demon beast, Su He will probably wake up laughing in his dreams, and then prepare a bunch of good things for the cat demon as a celebration.
The moon outside Qingyang Mountain is distant, hazy and soft. When passing by the weeds, a swarm of fireflies will be awakened. At this time, there will be stars that can be touched with your hands in the dark night. This is different from the daytime in Luoying Valley.
night.
The group returned to Wuyou Town. There were fewer and fewer people on the street and the shops were closing one after another. Only the northernmost wine shop was still open, with a long light hanging in front of the door.
The name of the tavern is Wuyou Inn. The first floor is a tavern, and the second and third floors are guest rooms. There are no drinkers in the hall, only a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old boy wearing rough clothes and short sleeves is clearing the tables and chairs.
As soon as the young man saw them, he immediately stopped what he was doing, his eyes sparkled, and he greeted them with a warm smile: "Are you young gentlemen going to stay in a hotel?"
He glanced at a few people roughly, and finally set his eyes on Su Yi, as if he was expecting something.
Su Yi didn't seem to notice the young man's overly direct look, and looked at him softly, saying: "Six rooms in the room, I'm ready for the work."
Hearing the sound, the smile on the young man's face became brighter and he hurriedly said: "Senior gentlemen, please come upstairs! Young master, have you just come back from Never Returning Forest? Five days ago, the outer barrier was suddenly damaged. My brother took people to guard the barrier and has not returned yet.
, I wonder if any of these gentlemen have ever met him?"
While speaking, the young man hurriedly unfolded a portrait, as if if he didn't open it now, he would have no chance to open it.
The figure in the painting has eyes like a sword and a firm outline, which is very similar to this young man. Unfortunately, they have not seen the person in this painting during this trip.
Before Su Yi could speak, Su Zhi stepped in front of him, straightened his face, lowered his voice and pretended to be serious: "No."
The young man wanted to ask more, but his arm was grabbed by a big hand and thrown aside. The young man was plump and had a few wrinkles at the end of his eyes when he smiled. She said:
"Young masters, please don't be angry. This kid has lost his mind and will ask questions about everyone he meets. I'll take you upstairs. The most famous thing in our building is Wuyou Wine. Can you guys try it? You should be right.
apologize."
Money is hard to come by in the frost, and so is Wuyou Wine. The recipe for this wine was once lost in the early years.
"No, thank you shopkeeper for your kindness." Su Yi declined politely. The shopkeeper wisely said nothing more and took them to the third floor before leaving.
On the other hand, Su Zhi's face suddenly elongated a lot. I don't know who made him angry.
He said dissatisfied: "Disciples are not allowed to drink. I don't believe that the shopkeeper didn't realize our identities. And the waiter, when he came, he ran around us three or four times, covertly and openly. I think he clearly has
The plan! Young Master, otherwise we should go back now! We will leave Su Ye and Su Li here to guard us for three days."
After Su Zhi said this, Hua Ruxue suddenly remembered that when she first entered Wuyou Town, there was a young man with a very loud voice running around on the street, saying something like, "Be a waiter, don't practice exercises."
So it turns out that the boy did what he did just to attract their attention. What did he want to do? At least he had successfully attracted her attention.
"There is no need to worry in Su's territory in Qingyang. We will rest here one night and return to the mountain early tomorrow morning." Su Yi has always had a good temper, so he will not care about this.
"Yes, young master."
Seeing that Su Yi was determined to live there, Su Zhi didn't say anything, and took Yin She to choose the house next to Su Yi to stay.
A total of six rooms were requested, and of course there was no room for Hua Ruxue to stay alone. She originally wanted to follow Die Yao to Su Ye's house to spend the night, but as soon as she moved, Su Yi's voice, like an evil ghost's whisper, came from behind.
Voice: "Where are you going? Come in and practice calligraphy."
She is a majestic fox demon who beats level four monsters with her bare hands. Her precious hands are used to write! What a waste of natural resources!
Standing in front of the case, just as he was about to exert force on his hand, Su Yi's gentle voice came from the side: "This is a piece of three hundred high-grade spiritual stones."
Three hundred high-grade spiritual stones. She can endure it! It’s not just about practicing calligraphy, she can do it! The fox can’t say no!
Su Yi put down the ink stick and stood aside to supervise her calligraphy practice, or she was in a daze. He would occasionally look at her in a daze, not knowing what bad idea she was thinking.
Two quarters of an hour later, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Hua Ruxue paused the pen in her hand and thought to herself: Finally here.
Immediately afterwards there was a knock on the door, and the visitor said: "I have just offended you, young master. I have come to apologize."
"come in."
Seeing Su Yi walking towards the young man, Hua Ruxue put down her pen, put on her robe and hat and followed closely behind him. Seeing this, Su Yi smiled helplessly, pulled out the chair next to her and asked her to sit down.
As soon as the two sat down, the young man knelt down in front of them and said, "Please help me, young master!"
"Get up and talk." Su Yi's face remained the same, showing no surprise at all. I don't know if he had guessed it or if he had always been like this.
Anyway, she had just figured it out. They were spotted by this young man as soon as they entered Wuyou Town, but before he could think of a countermeasure, they hurried to the outskirts.
During this trip, except for Su Yi, who was wearing regular blue clothes, the other five were all wearing blue clothes as disciples. The young man and the shopkeeper pretended not to recognize them, in order to test their character and see if they would declare themselves superior to others.
, secondly, look at their temperament.
It is not a secret that all the disciples of Qingyang Mountain are prohibited from drinking alcohol. The shopkeeper pretended not to know how to apologize to them with wine, just to see if they would be angry because of this, or if they would forget about those rules after leaving Qingyang Mountain.
Their intention to test this was too obvious and indeed abrupt. No wonder Su Zhihui was so angry and wanted to go back to the mountain immediately.
"Since the outer barrier was damaged, the villain has been waiting for someone to come from the mountain. As soon as the young master appeared, the villain recognized him, but he ran back and forth several times and did not dare to come forward. Until the young master appeared.
In the wine shop, the villain had no choice but to come up with this trick to attract the attention of the young master. If he misses this opportunity, he doesn’t know when he will meet a kind-hearted person like the young master again."
The young man spoke sincerely, and the expectation in his eyes didn't seem to be fake. Hua Ruxue quickly poured herself a cup of hot tea. She was very curious about what the young man wanted to do.
Su Yi did not interrupt him and motioned for him to continue speaking. It was obvious that he did not take the young man's previous actions to heart.
The young man continued: "The villain Fang Yuan has lived with his brother Fang Man in Wuyou Town since he can remember. Seven years ago, my brother sent me to Qingyang Mountain in order to collect spiritual stones, and picked me up to collect spiritual herbs in the Forest of No Return.
Mission. At that time, the invasion of demonic energy in the Forest of No Return was not serious, and monsters would only attack in winter. Not only my brother, many people would go to the Forest of No Return to hunt monsters or collect medicine."
"My brother was at the peak of foundation building at that time. Even the monks who had just established the foundation came back, but he still hasn't come back! He has been gone for seven years! I have my brother's life card on me, and it is still intact, but I
No matter what, we can’t find him!”
"Just a few days ago, when the outer barrier was damaged, I suddenly sensed my brother's aura. He was near the barrier!"
Fang Yuan became more and more excited as he spoke, and the life tablet in his hand was shaking. The life tablet was connected to the monk. The fact that the life tablet was not broken meant that the monk's life was safe.
"Please young master, save him!" After saying this, Fang Yuan knelt on his knees and knocked his head heavily on the ground.
Hua Ruxue turned to look at Su Yi. She always felt that Fang Yuan had something to say. He should be "looking for someone", but he begged Su Yi to "save someone".
A person who disappeared for seven years suddenly appeared when the barrier was broken, or was near the barrier. What happened? Could it be related to the barrier being broken?
The butterfly demon said that there was the aura of the demonized beast in the damaged area of the barrier. It should have been it that broke the barrier and was subsequently killed by the elders.
Wait, elder, there are elders guarding the boundary, but instead of asking the elders to save his brother, Fang Yuan comes to ask the young master?
Seemingly seeing her doubts, Su Yi asked Fang Yuan to stand up, and then explained to her: "The elder is obsessed with cultivation and will not interfere with anything other than killing monsters."
Therefore, it is impossible for the elder to help Fang Yuan, and it is not surprising that he tried again and again as soon as they met. He must have begged other disciples in the past, but they refused to respond.
Su Yi looked at Fang Yuan with a hint of pity in his eyes, and said, "You go back first and visit Wuchen Village early tomorrow morning."
Is this the answer? Fang Yuan clearly concealed something in his words. This chapter has been completed!
