Today, Aster is dressed very coquettishly, and she is seen wearing a water-red gold satin fur jacket, a floor-length lake blue embroidered peony eight-piece skirt, and a lake blue thin veil.
She has shiny black hair, tied up in a unique Feiyun bun, with red gold and jade flowers in her lightly curled temples. She wears a red gold bracelet with nine turns of beads on her hand, and a cigarette on her waist.
The most eye-catching thing about the purple Ruyi silk ribbon is the large expanse of milky white on the chest, which makes the whole person look bright and enchanting.
She was half leaning and half standing in Jin Yu's arms. Jin Yu was also dressed a little differently. She was wearing a dark robe with a moon-white spider pattern belt tied around her waist. When she looked at Zi Wan,
Instead of being as fiery as before, it was more dull. There was a ruthless and capable aura everywhere in his body.
Jiang Youyu was also standing in the crowd. After scanning around for a few times, he didn't find Butler Jin, which seemed a bit inexplicable.
"I'm afraid something might happen on the way to Xize Mountain today!!" Jiang Youyu felt awe-struck in his heart.
His eyes were scanning the crowd again. At this time, Jinyu seemed to feel something. A pair of cold eyes looked here, and he glanced at Jiang Youyu with a cold look.
Jiang Youyu also stared at Jinyu silently, and then looked away.
Jiang Youyu understood that Jin Yu was warning him with her eyes. Then the large group of people did not set off from the main gate of Jin Mansion, but chose to take a detour through the back door.
The huge horses and crowds continued to flow outwards, and after a while, the Jin Mansion seemed empty.
This is a stretch of mountains, with several peaks of strange shapes, huge rock walls standing on the verge of collapse, dotted with green trees and bamboos. Layers of mist are floating in the air.
There are very few bushes in the forest, and they are all towering thousand-year-old trees.
The branches of the trees are intertwined, and the lush branches and leaves spread out like green clouds, completely covering the entire mountain.
As time goes by, the color of the mountain gradually becomes clearer, and the shape of the mountain gradually becomes softer. It is almost as if you can touch it with your hand.
"Everyone, be careful, this is the foot of Mount Xize," Jinyu shouted loudly.
Jiang Youyu glanced around and saw only infinite distance. Among the continuous mountains, there were peaks reaching into the sky everywhere, as straight as arrows. The light in the forest was dark, and the tall and straight trees blocked most of the sunlight, leaving only mottled sunlight.
Sparse light shines through the branches and leaves of the trees, making the forest particularly mysterious and strange.
The forest was filled with erratic mist, but it was surprisingly quiet, as if no living creature had ever set foot in this place.
There is also an air of desolation on those hundreds of mountain peaks.
Jiang Youyu glanced at it and was a little stunned by the scene. He thought to himself: "This mountain range... This mountain range looks familiar?"
"wrong!!"
"Born from the infinite, it is the machine of movement and stillness, the mother of yin and yang. When it moves, it separates, and when it stays still, it unites. The pulse hides wind and gathers water without moving."
"But it doesn't hide the wind or collect the water here, does it?"
Jiang Youyu took a deep breath, suppressed some of the emotions and doubts in his heart, and followed a group of people to a cave to rest.
Aster's beautiful eyes glanced at Jiang Youyu who was resting in the crowd, and said with a smile: "Jiang Youyu, try using your special sense. Can you sense chalcedony?"
"Well, yes, Jiang Youyu, give it a try!!" Jinyu's eyes were slightly cold, pointing at Jiang Youyu, but looking away from Zi Wan.
As if aware of Jin Yu's unusually cold tone, Zi Wan's expression changed slightly, then she blinked her long eyelashes and chuckled, "Brother Jin, what's wrong with you? Are you so angry? Be careful with yourself!!"
Jinyu turned her head, looked at Aster in front of her, and said in a deep voice, "It's okay, Aster. I just didn't know before setting off that the Li family was also urgently gathering people today, and it seems they are also heading for Xize Mountain."
Zi Yuan blinked blankly and said in surprise, "Oh?"
On the other side, Jiang Youyu also passed through the crowd, came to Ziyuan and Jinyu, and said absently: "My young master, madam, I haven't felt anything yet? It's just..."
Seeing that Jiang Youyu was confused, Zi Yuan said, "It's just what..."
Jiang Youyu chimed in: "It's just that along the way, I found that this road has been walked by others..."
Jinyu nodded and said, "That's right...he's from the Li family!"
"Li family?" Jiang Youyu frowned.
Jinyu said impatiently: "Can you find it? How far is it? The evil cultivators in this area are tyrannical! Don't let any accidents happen!" The word 'Demon Cult' was emphasized in her words.
sound.
Jiang Youyu blurted out without even thinking: "I understand, kid, but it's not the right time yet! And the path is wrong!"
Jinyu tilted her head and thought for a moment, then asked: "Timing? What timing do you want? Where is the wrong path?"
Jiang Youyu couldn't help but glance at Zi Wan, and said meaningfully: "Young man can sense that this Xize Mountain contains a lot of 'dead energy'. The further you go in, the more deadly energy you get. Chalcedony Zhi, or maybe we all
It is full of 'qi', which is used to deal with the situation of death and hide the power of Qi. As the saying goes, 'the lotus root is broken and the silk is connected, the more it is removed, the more powerful it will be.'"
Zi Yuan looked hesitant when she heard this, and asked in a low voice: "I didn't expect that your kid also knows some feng shui of heaven and earth, so which direction should we go in?"
Jiang Youyu thought to himself: That's it? This is my job! He slowly said: "There are three treasures in the sky: sun, moon and stars; there are three treasures on the ground: water, fire and wind; there are three treasures in people: spirit, energy and spirit. In this Xize Mountain, they are actually isolated.
If there is no communication between heaven and earth, then we should disperse when we meet the wind, stop when we meet the mountains, gather together, and go up to water."
Jinyu on the side did not feel a trace of joy. Instead, she glared angrily, gritted her teeth and said, "Speak humanly!!"
Jiang Youyu shook his head helplessly and said, "Take the water route."
"Walking along the waterway in the mountains..."
Jinyu still refused to give up: "Are you sure??"
Zi Yuan turned around at this time, rolled her eyes and said: "Brother Jin, the Li family before us must have taken this road. Now they are already in Xize Mountain. If we encounter the group of demons in Xize Mountain,
If you teach evil cultivators, you will be in trouble!"
Jinyu glanced at Jiang Youyu fiercely and secretly wondered what the hell this kid was doing, but he was already on the verge of making a move...she steeled herself, turned to Jiang Youyu and said, "Okay, tell me to go down and take the waterway.
"
After a short rest, the large group of people and horses started moving again, moving forward along the waterway in the mountains. After a while, the densely packed giant trees blocked the sky and blocked the sun.
Looking back, the original road has long disappeared, and the waterway ahead is full of weirdness and magic.
The gloomy and pale sunshine shrouded this strange forest. In the deep mountains and old forests, towering ancient trees blocked the sky and obscured the sun.
Because the forest also looks eerie and mysterious. No one would dare to go to this forest after seeing this kind of scene.
Sometimes, the forest is so quiet, as if everything is sleeping in the fear of death, and sometimes, strange figures and creepy sounds can make people hallucinate that they are in the underworld.
Thick and towering strange plants, nameless insects with enchanting colors, everything looks so unusual.
There is a dark cloud in the distant sky. Looking down from the top of the dark cloud, in the middle of a quiet forest, a large group of people are marching, like a huge black centipede like a majestic mountain range, slowly crawling across the trees.
Staggered and broken, like the traces left by a giant python after crawling across the grass...
The dirt and gravel stepped on by its feet burst out everywhere along the place where it passed. Thousands of huge abdominal legs crisscrossed and smashed into the ground. The cracks in the earth spread staggeredly, like cracks in the ice, and collapsed everywhere.
…
The narrow old shrine road is winding and eerie. The dark clouds are covered by the incoming mountain forest, and only a vague dark halo comes out from behind the thick clouds.
The wind swayed in the tops of the tall trees, making a huge and slow rustling sound.
The crowds are constantly moving, as if they are standing against a desert-like sea of trees, setting off the quiet mountains.
The mountain wind in Xize Mountain can clearly feel the cold meaning. A little bit of it is suspended in the air, it is dew or ice flakes. It is not clear, but when it touches the skin, it will stir up a little goosebumps.
pimple.
The quiet color in the forest was gradually washed away by the glow, and the rising sun painted a shining red halo on the tops of the trees.
Straight beams of light pierced into the depths of the forest from the gaps in the tree crowns, illuminating the thick moss on the ground. The breeze flashed by, making a rustling sound, just like the sigh of a devil.
It was quiet all the way, not even the chirping of birds, and the crowd gradually became restless.
The servants and guards of the Jin Mansion still spoke little, but the many strong men with full equipment could no longer hold on. The heavy equipment was heavy, and the journey was long. The strong men were covered in sweat and thirsty.
to death.
Jinyu and Ziyuan were sitting in the carriage. Jinyu, who usually offered all his sweet words to Ziyuan, became taciturn at this moment.
Although Zi Wan was slightly surprised, she also understood what was going on. She raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth and closed her eyes to rest.
"Hey, have you heard about it? The demon cult cultivators in Xize Mountain are very vicious!" As they were advancing through the waterway, the mysterious voices of several guards not far away sounded.
Jiang Youyu's eyes were drawn towards him.
"What's going on? What's going on? What's going on?" One of the guards asked quietly to another shorter guard.
The shorter guard was stunned for a moment. He looked at several companions around him who had the same question and curled his lips in disdain. "Uh... you don't know?"
"It's true that such a big thing only spread yesterday."
"Jianjia Village was massacred a few days ago... Oh, how miserable! I heard that a fool named 'Jian Hao' was killed in the whole village. I heard from the guards of the Lord of Jialiang that the streets were covered with blood.
The smell, each and every living life was just reduced to nothing. The corpses were exposed, cracked, and even fragmented, and there was almost no complete face..."
"Ouch..." One of the guards asked in confusion: "Could it be this group of demon sects from Xize Mountain..."
“Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh, keep your voice down!!!”
"The village was claimed to have been attacked by a powerful monster, but it was actually done by these beasts like Xize Mountain." He trembled his lips, with a scolding look on his face, and roared softly.
"Then if we meet them on this trip, won't we never come back?" one of the guards asked tremblingly.
"Haha... How is that possible? Let me tell you that the Li family has already arrived. I'm afraid the two sides are at war..." The guard said with a proud smile.
