On the mountain road behind, Hua Yueying took out a cup of fragrant tea and Zhang Fan drank it all in one gulp.
A faint figure came in front of him:
"Master, there is nothing unusual about this small mountain village ahead. Most of the young and strong men are gone. Only some women, old and young live here. They are very poor."
Zhang Fan turned his head and looked at Li Jing, whose body was shattered by Zhenyuan Daxian, and smiled playfully:
"Mu Zha, it seems that you have adapted to life in this world. How do you feel about the past few days?"
Mu Zha’s expression remained unchanged:
"After leaving the primitive world, I am only a remnant of my soul. Naturally, I obey my master's orders. However, this world is indeed wonderful. It is completely different from the primitive world and is breathtaking."
Zhang Fan smiled when he heard this. He had released Mu Zha three days ago, but this guy's body was shattered by Zhen Yuan Daxian, so it was impossible for him to stay in Zhen Yuan Daxian's Taoist temple.
Besides, Zhang Fan didn't want to help Mu Zha recover his body, because this guy didn't have any good treasures on him and was of no value. The reason he kept him with him was just that he didn't want Jin Zha's brother to die. But he was a Taiyi Golden Immortal after all, and it would be a waste if he didn't use him. It would be best to use him to explore the way.
In Hua Yueying's opinion, it was an honor for Mu Zha to do things for Zhang Fan, even if it was just serving tea and water, so she naturally would not object.
But Muzha was proud by nature, and now that he had suffered such a miserable end, one can imagine how unhappy he must be.
Moreover, if the people in the prehistoric world knew that the boy under the seat of Guanyin, the quasi-saint of Buddhism, had fallen to the point of being a tool for the owner of the pawnshop of heaven and earth to explore the way, they would probably be stunned.
"We have been walking in the mountains for two days. It's time to find a place to stay. Let's rest in this village for a day!"
Seeing the dissatisfied look on Mu Zha's face, Zhang Fan seemed quite complacent.
This guy dared to scold Zhen Yuan Daxian, the ancestor of earthly immortals. He is a troublemaker no less than Nezha. Now his face is so dark, it makes me feel good just looking at him.
The three of them entered the village. It was snowing heavily and the white snow was already above their ankles. Near the mountain road, there was a small hut that looked very dilapidated.
As the three of them got down the mountain road, they saw a small figure sitting on the threshold of the small hut. He was wearing a somewhat worn cotton-padded jacket and holding a steaming bowl. He was looking at Hua Yueying and Zhang Fan with curious and strange eyes.
As for Mu Zha, he is the soul of Taiyi Golden Immortal after all. Zhang Fan does not allow him to condense his body, and it is even more impossible for him to be seen by ordinary people who have no other cultivation level.
Hua Yueying only saw the girl in tattered clothes sitting on the doorstep with a cabbage in her mouth. There was no rejection or fear on her fair and lovely face, nor was there any shyness. Instead, she looked at her curiously.
Seeing the girl's eyes, Hua Yueying showed a bit of surprise.
As a quasi-saint, although he did not need any spiritual power to observe, he could see with his eyes that there was no heat in the room behind the little girl, and no trace of other people. In other words, this little girl had to live alone in this cold winter.
What a miserable environment, what a tremendous pressure of life, but nothing could defeat this girl. Instead, it made her have an extremely pure heart and a perfect attitude of facing everyone with kindness.
So Hua Yueying showed some shock, and a bit of pity emerged in her heart.
The sadness of this quasi-saint moved heaven and earth, and the rage of the quasi-saint was equivalent to the rage of heaven and earth.
When one reaches this state, every move will affect the world around him. The little girl was quick-witted and immediately felt Hua Yueying's sadness. She put down the bowl in her hand and ran out on the thick snow!
A tender and lovely voice came out from the little girl's mouth:
"Big sister, is it because the weather is too cold? Why are you crying? Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat something delicious, okay?"
As she spoke, the little girl ran to Hua Yueying. She didn't look afraid at all. Instead, she had an urge to take care of Hua Yueying.
This made Hua Yueying laugh immediately. She squatted down and grabbed the little girl's hand. Looking at Xiao Youyou, whose body was trembling slightly due to the cold, Hua Yueying mobilized a bit of spiritual power from heaven and earth in her body and infused it into the girl's body. In an instant, the girl showed a surprised expression.
"Big sister, you are so awesome, why am I not cold now?"
Zhang Fan couldn't help but shake his head slightly when he saw how innocent and cute the girl was:
"There are too many people with unfortunate fates in this world. Although the Three Realms are high, in my eyes, those so-called immortals and Buddhas are not as approachable as a little girl."
Mu Zha, who was floating on the side, raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this:
"Master, this girl must have a bad fate. I saw that her parents have passed away long ago, and she will be killed by a tiger in the future. This is fate and destiny. We should not interfere."
Zhang Fan frowned when he heard this, looked down at the little girl who was very close to Hua Yueying, and sighed softly.
Afterwards, the little girl invited Hua Yueying and Zhang Fan to her small hut, took out the rice that a kind person had sent her a few days ago, rinsed it with water, and put it into the pot. Watching the little girl struggling to break the frozen ice in the iron bucket and take out the water underneath, even Hua Yueying couldn't help showing an expression of pity.
"Big sister, you will be able to eat delicious rice soon, but I still have to go to the village entrance to collect some firewood, so you just have to wait for a while."
The little girl giggled, then quickly left the room and walked towards the village entrance in the heavy snow.
"Youyou, what are you going to do? Sister brought a lot of food with her, so there's no need to light a fire!"
Hua Yueying hurriedly chased after them, and Zhang Fan followed behind. He saw the little girl turning back from time to time and greeting the two of them, fearing that the two of them seemed to be lost. This was extremely considerate.
"He's only a few years old, but he's so obedient and sensible. Master, no wonder you have such deep feelings for this world. I seem to understand it a little bit now."
Hua Yueying turned and said to Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan said nothing. He was thinking about how Mu Zha had just used the art of qi-reading to see the cause and effect of this girl's life!
Hua Yueying did not use any Taoist magic, and even listened to Zhang Fan's words and regarded herself as a mortal. Presumably, Hua Yueying had never expected such a result.
As they walked towards the village entrance, suddenly, a suppressed growl was heard in the wind and snow.
Zhang Fan suddenly turned his head and saw a black leopard that almost blended into the tree on the snow in the woods next to the pile of firewood at the entrance of the village. It had golden eyes and was staring at the little girl walking forward.
