Chapter 135 Extra 4
On the way back to Guiyuan Sect from Yunning Daze, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang did not drive the flying boat all the way.
Sometimes they transformed into their original forms, and used the body of the Teng Snake to roll up Yan Luoyue's original form and move forward with the wind.
Whenever the wings of the Teng Snake cast a shadow that covered the sky, people who felt the coolness passing over their heads would raise their heads and wave or laugh at the figure of the "Xuanwu".
Sometimes, Wu Manshuang fell from the sky and transformed into a human form together with Yan Luoyue, and walked slowly forward along the green path where the grass grew to their knees.
In terms of the general direction, the two of them headed all the way to Guiyuan Sect. As for their minor goals, they did not have a fixed place to stay.
Sometimes when walking on the street, Yan Luoyue heard that the neighboring Huawu City was holding a Hundred Flowers Festival, and she couldn't help but go and join in the fun.
Or when they were near a town, they heard that the city behind them, Longxin, was good at brewing a certain kind of fine wine, so they would turn around and go to taste it.
During this process, they encountered Shen Jingxuan countless times.
After the battle, Shen Jingxuan had an epiphany and stayed in seclusion in the demon world for a while.
The many monks and nuns who came here with her were going to return to their sect according to the arrangements of the Fanyin Temple.
It is said that before the departure, each of these monks and nuns emptied their pockets and collected some spirit stones to give to Shen Jingxuan.
Although these masters from Fanyin Temple all practiced hard and were incorruptible, they were still generous to their fellow sisters and brothers, preferring to suffer themselves rather than Shen Jingxuan.
When Shen Jingxuan received this amount of spirit stones, he was both moved and confused.
"Brothers and sisters, why have you waited for me till now?"
The senior sister who was usually the best friend of Shen Jingxuan grabbed Shen Jingxuan's hand and shook it three times in a row.
Looking at his senior sister's solemn, cautious, and even heavy expression, Shen Jingxuan almost thought that he was not staying in the demon world to close a barrier temporarily, but that he would make the demon world his home from now on and would never be able to go back.
And for some reason, the tone of this senior sister's voice sounded as if this would be the last time she saw me in this life.
She said, "It's because... Well, anyway, Junior Sister Jingxuan, if you can't find the way back to the temple, don't try to find it. If you really can't find it, just hire a caravan that's going the same way!"
——If it were up to Shen Jingxuan to find his way on his own, then Senior Sister would be really scared. Seeing this side of Shen Jingxuan today would be the last look between them in this life.
Without saying anything else, just now, looking at the rising sun in the sky, ask Shen Jingxuan to look for the east, and see if she can find it!
Shen Jingxuan: “…”
Facts have proved that Shen Jingxuan did not disappoint the expectations of his senior sister.
She roamed in the demon world for three whole months but could not find the entrance to the human world.
Fellow Buddhist practitioners who learned about this: “…” Then they knew!
The Zhunti Banner Master who received the message: "..."
Zhunti Flag Master finally realized belatedly:
Maybe, probably, most likely, in the initial side-by-side battle, Master Jingxuan was not a man of great foresight or profound Buddhist knowledge who could accurately locate the hiding places of the aliens.
She just couldn't find the way.
In the end, Shen Jingxuan got lost somewhere and happened to meet Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang who were building a space passage there. Then they took Shen Jingxuan back to the human world.
Speaking of this, Yan Luoyue really broke out in a cold sweat for Shen Jingxuan.
You know, if Jingxuan got lost there for a few days, the space passage would be completed, and she and Wu Manshuang would say goodbye and leave.
And the place that space passage leads to... is not the human world, but the spirit world that has just established diplomatic relations.
In other words, Shen Jingxuan almost got lost in the unfamiliar spiritual world.
After this incident, Yan Luoyue also realized that the opening of these space channels did not have all benefits.
Take Shen Jingxuan for example. When she got lost, people would ask around and find that someone familiar had heard of her whereabouts.
After the space channel was opened, if one wanted to find Shen Jingxuan's whereabouts, one would have to ask around in the four realms and eight wastelands.
If she had only relied on Shen Jingxuan's description, she could have told Yan Luoyue very sincerely that she was standing under the sun...
Anyway, during the days since they returned to the human world, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang kept heading east, and they would occasionally run into Shen Jingxuan (who was supposed to be heading west back to Fanyin Temple).
After doing it so many times, Shen Jingxuan seemed to have developed a conditioned reflex.
As long as she saw Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang from a distance, she would nod her head, then turn 180 degrees and walk in the direction she came from.
But this time the situation is a little different.
Seeing Shen Jingxuan turn around and leave so decisively, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang looked at each other and quickly chased after her to stop her.
"Hey, Jingxuan!"
Shen Jingxuan clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name, a hint of confusion emerging in his clear eyes.
"Amitābha, has the poor monk gone the wrong way again?"
Could it be that this time she did not turn 180 degrees, but 270 degrees, but she did not realize it?
"No." Yan Luoyue laughed and pointed at the top of Shen Jingxuan's head. "Well...how did you two meet?"
Although Yan Luoyue had said at the beginning that after the matter was over, he would send the Crow's Cry Fire to Shen Jingxuan to learn the cursing technique, but that was just a joke.
Who would have thought that by accident, this lively little flame and the hardcore little nun would actually meet each other!
Shen Jingxuan's expression remained unchanged, and he spoke slowly, "That day, when the poor nun passed through Tonghua Town, he encountered another flower thief..."
On Shen Jingxuan’s bald forehead, the golden crow-cry fire flapped its wings.
The light of the crow's cry was already dazzling, and it was even more dazzling when it moved. It also reflected Shen Jingxuan's shiny scalp, and for a moment, it seemed as if there were two more suns in the world.
Because his ears and eyes were very sharp, Yan Luoyue even heard people whispering in the crowd.
"No wonder all the Buddhas in the murals have halos behind their heads - it turns out there really are halos!"
Yan Luoyue: “…”
Wu Manshuang: “…”
No, that's not it. How do you explain this? In fact, ordinary nuns don't have this on their heads...
The Crow's Crying Fire opened its mouth and let out a series of pleasant chirping sounds. It first lazily corrected Shen Jingxuan:
"Little nun, you are wrong again. That town is called Tongzi Town. Tsk, silly boy, I remember every little flame."
Afterwards, Crow's Cry Fire told Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang in a proud tone, as if he had discovered a new theorem:
"Do you know this little nun? Let me tell you, she can talk!"
Yan Luoyue: “…”
Wu Manshuang: “…”
The two looked at each other in tacit understanding, one looked up at the sky, and the other looked down at the ground.
Well, they could imagine what kind of person Shen Jingxuan was.
Crow's Crying Fire flapped its wings and puffed out its chest: "So I decided to observe her for a while and learn how to talk before I leave!"
Yan Luoyue blushed and said, "Wu Ti, what are you learning this... um, speaking skills for?"
Things are different now, the biggest enemy has been dealt with.
As a natural born divine fire, Yan Luoyue could not think of any other situation that could allow the Crow's Cry Fire's superb curse skills to come in handy.
The Crow's Crying Fire widened its little eyes.
"Of course we're going to the ruins of Hongtong Palace to visit the graves!"
Yan Luoyue: “…”
Wu Manshuang: “…”
Okay, that's fine too...
Compared to Wu Ti, the person who is more worrying is obviously Shen Jingxuan.
Because she bowed very humbly and murmured, "Poor nuns also have many ways of speaking, I want to ask Shenhuo for advice."
Yan Luoyue closed her eyes, not daring to imagine what kind of wonders this meeting of Ni and Huo would create in the world of language and culture in a few years.
Forget it, think about it in a more tolerant way. At most, Jingxuan can transform her beautiful language art.
She can't be bad like Crow's Cry Fire, and when she encounters an enemy, she will use her fists and hammers while evolving a pair of long beaks!
…
After bidding farewell to Shen Jingxuan and Wu Ti, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang continued on their journey.
Perhaps because Wu Ti showed Shen Jingxuan the way, they did not encounter the lost little nun again on the road afterwards.
Thank God and the earth, Yan Luoyue sincerely hopes that Shen Jingxuan can return to Fanyin Temple safely without encountering any setbacks or accidentally entering the cross-border passage between the spirit world, the demon world, and the devil world.
After some time, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang arrived at the Biluo River.
Deep in the center of the Biluo River, there is a group of mermaids who live here. They are friends of Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang.
Therefore, when the two of them passed by the Biluo River, they must pay a visit to the mermaids.
Originally, Wu Manshuang had already prepared the mermaid whistle.
Who would have thought that when he reached the upper end of the river and just as he put the whistle to his lips and was about to blow it, several charming and graceful figures emerged from the clear and transparent blue waves.
In addition to Quanxiang with a golden fishtail and Asahi with a purple fishtail, there is also the beautiful girl with a fishtail in a contrasting color of ice cream.
The mermaids surfaced, obviously not having noticed the arrival of Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang in advance.
I saw three mermaids half-lying on the rocks beside the rapids on the river bank, their fish tails beating out a string of beautiful waves on the water, and they were talking eagerly to someone on the shore.
As for the girl who was talking to the mermaids...
Yan Luoyue took a closer look and after confirming who it was, she immediately smiled.
"Oh, it's forgetfulness!"
The girl was dressed simply in green, with a refined temperament. Wasn't she Yin Wangyou, who had become famous in the world of cultivation in recent years because she had cracked the code of the alien advancement genealogy tree?
I don’t know how Yin Wangyou got to know these mermaid sisters in the Biluo River. I can only say that the fate and opportunities in this world are truly extraordinary and wonderful.
When everyone met, they were all surprised and happy.
The mermaids laughed and covered the faces of Yan Luoyue and the other two with a layer of pure white mermaid silk, so that they could move freely in the water.
They invited the three guests to the bottom of the river, and then with a mischievous smile, they teasingly put three-colored fish like colorful gauze into Yan Luoyue and Yin Wangyou's hair.
After the laughter and noise are over, they can then share their recent situation with each other.
Only then did Yan Luoyue realize that Yin Wangyou was asked by Chang Lili to come to the Biluo River to obtain the Mermaid Pearl on behalf of Senior Sister Chang Lili.
After proposing the idea of the alien transformation tree and being widely accepted by the cultivation world, Yin Wangyou relied on his talent to become a disciple of the Guiyuan Sect.
She entered the sect later than Yan Luoyue, so logically she should call Yan Luoyue "Senior Sister".
However, just like Yin Wangyou and Chang Lili have always called each other by their first names, since everyone is so familiar with each other, of course it is more intimate to call each other by their first names.
After taking the small bag of mermaid pearls handed to him by Quan Xiang, Yin Wangyou first put it into the storage bag on his waist with a serious and cautious look on his face, and then answered Quan Xiang's question.
Her serious and careful expression made Quan Xiang cover her mouth and laugh. Her golden fish tail swayed lively, and the surging waves like bubbles were gently thrown onto Yin Wangyou.
"It's just a bag of mermaid pearls. Don't be so nervous. Even if you lose it along the way, you can always come back to us and ask for it."
Quan Xiang said softly: "You are Li Li's friend, so you are also our friend."
Yan Luoyue was more familiar with Yin Wangyou's character: "Wangyou is like this by nature. She is very methodical in everything she does, and it's not just when it comes to the Mermaid Pearl."
If he didn't have such a meticulous character and a willingness to get to the bottom of things, he probably wouldn't have been able to produce the kind of research that, once published, would shock the world of cultivation.
Only after putting away the bag of mermaid beads did Yin Wangyou say, "Lili said that the jade slips from the past that you provided her not long ago have helped her progress by leaps and bounds. If she continues like this, maybe in three to five years, she will be able to initially research a tree that can grow mermaids."
“Wow~~~”
Hearing the good news, the mermaids held hands and smiled at each other.
The voice, which was already as gentle as water, suddenly sounded like it had two or three more tildes, which was almost heart-wrenching.
Hearing the words "the jade slips of the past years", Yan Luoyue seemed to realize something.
You know, mermaids are naturally loving and not hateful, gentle and frank, and definitely not the type to keep secrets. If there had been such a thing before, and Chang Lili was asked to study mermaids planting trees, it would have been brought out long ago.
I gave the jade slip to Chang Lili not long ago, and that was probably...
Before Yan Luoyue could ask, Quan Xiang chuckled and said:
"Can you help me? That would be great. These jade slips are gifts from fellow demons."
——Yes, just like the turtle tribe in Yunning Daze has reestablished contact with the main branch of the turtle tribe in the monster tribe.
The mermaids living in the Biluo River also received news and local rituals from their homeland.
Quan Xiang used her nimble fingers to catch the little three-colored fish from Yan Luoyue's hair, and waved it in front of her as if to show off.
"Look, we put a big bag of cute little fish like this in the gifts we sent to our fellow demons!"
The haze of old history has dissipated.
After the rain, the sky cleared up. Under the new colorful clouds, the connection between the human race, the demon race and the monster race was like a rainbow that crossed the barrier of space and was connected again.
Yan Luoyue looked at the scene in front of her, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.
…
When they were about to say goodbye, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang were stopped by Quan Xiang.
The beautiful mermaid had a mysterious smile on her face. She playfully winked at Yan Luoyue, and then: "Ding ding ding!"
A large-scale shark silk weaving painting with delicate brushstrokes and vivid colors appeared in front of the two people.
The mermaids once again wove the image of Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang getting along on the mermaid silk.
In this painting, they are holding hands, smiling at each other with affectionate eyes. The little boy and girl of the past have grown up.
…
On the way back to Guiyuan Sect, Yan Luoyue was concentrating on thinking about another thing.
——I didn’t expect that after not seeing you for such a long time, Senior Sister Chang Lili has made such a big breakthrough in her research.
Since she can breed mermaids, I wonder if she can breed more races: such as nightmares, mirages, and human shells?
If it were possible, the souls living in the Moonlit Tree might...
With such thoughts in mind, after arriving at Guiyuan Sect, he did not even return to Huifeng to see his eldest senior brother and second senior brother first, but turned around and went straight into Danfeng.
But at this time, Yan Luoyue had no idea what Chang Lili would face after seeing her.
As a senior sister with whom she has always had a good relationship, after the war, Yan Luoyue once told Chang Lili that she and Man Shuang were born as divine creatures.
But at that time it was only said in a letter, and we never met in person.
So it’s not her fault. After seeing Yan Luoyue and Wu Manyhuang, Chang Lili’s eyes sparkled with gold. She jumped up like a tiger and grabbed Yan Luoyue’s hands tightly like a hungry wolf pouncing on its food!
"Master Yan Shu—No, Junior Sister Yan! I finally waited for you to come back!"
Yan Luoyue: “…”
Does your title reveal your thoughts as a tree-planting maniac? !
Chang Lili held Yan Luoyue's hand tightly and affectionately, expressing her concern for her repeatedly.
"After discovering that you are actually a tree, how does it affect your daily life? Do you want to bloom when you see your wizard brother? Can you drink water with your heels? There is a pile of fertilizer in the corner right now. Will you drool when you find it?"
Yan Luoyue: “…”
What a great cultivation version of Pavloli.
Otherwise, should she just leave?
