Chapter 55 Brother-in-law, don't regret it

Because of money, or maybe because of a lost baby, or for various reasons, Ji You agreed to follow Yuan Chen into the mountains.

But before entering the mountain, he needed to prepare something, so he found a secluded place and began to recover his mind and spiritual energy.

"We went into the mountains just to look for people. No matter what we see, don't touch it."

Yuan Chen nodded after hearing this, and said with a serious face: "I understand, brother-in-law, we will come out when we find my sister."

Ji You's mouth twitched: "I promised not to break my promise, you don't have to sell your sister."

"More relatives mean more paths, this is what my father told me..."

Yuan Chen grumbled, "Besides being very beautiful, my sister is also very gentle."

"I don't like gentleness."

"?"

Ji You was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he closed his eyes and began to try the divine connection again.

Because whether you are in the mountains or become a bandit after going out, cultivation is always the most important thing, there is no doubt about that.

But like the previous times, he failed.

Even though his spiritual power had been trained and its strength far exceeded that of the Tianshu Academy days, he still felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire and could not move forward no matter how hard he struggled.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion or I’m too cautious, but Ji You always feels that the way of heaven here seems to be different from the way of heaven in the outside world.

Qingyun World may have never been completely controlled by human beings.

Ji You's golden divine consciousness roamed in the void for a while, but could not see any light, only a desolate and dead silence.

After a moment, he came back to his senses quietly, his mind going blank.

Yuan Chen was reading the book "Flying Fairy" in his hand. When he saw Ji You's eyes flashing with golden light when he opened them, he was a little surprised.

"Can your eyes glow?"

"It's a sign that the divine consciousness has broken through its limits." Ji You concealed the light in his eyes.

Yuan Chen was born in the Dan Sect and taught the Dao of Alchemy, but as a young man, at his age he would be more interested in fighting and killing, which is why he was so immersed in the vernacular novels circulated among the people.

In his opinion, being a swordsman who could fly a thousand miles with one sword was what he wanted to be, rather than sitting in front of an alchemy furnace every day, refining pills and making medicines.

Ji You was the first cultivator who used a sword that he had come into contact with, so he was naturally very curious.

"I came to Beisha Town before and saw some cultivators trying to practice Taoism, but they gave up after trying once."

"Because the way of heaven cannot be sensed here."

Yuan Chen looked at him after hearing this: "But they are not like you, who desperately try to train their mind every day. Last time I asked you what you could do with training your mind, you didn't tell me."

Ji You thought for a moment and then said, "Divine thoughts are actually the carrier of the connection between humans and the Way of Heaven, but many cultivators think that it is enough and do not deliberately train their divine thoughts."

"What about you?"

"I am practicing both martial arts and Taoism. I need to control more swords to increase my chances of winning a battle. Every additional sword is a burden on my spiritual consciousness, so I need a stronger spiritual consciousness. Although I cannot attain enlightenment here, it is very suitable for training my spiritual consciousness."

After hearing this, Yuan Chen recalled the image of the Seven Swords Flying Slash and became more satisfied with the brother-in-law he had found for his sister.

At this moment, Luo You walked over and glanced at both of them.

Ji You immediately stood up, knowing that it was time to go into the mountains.

Yuan Chen also patted his butt, showing a solemn expression, and followed Ji You and Luo You into an old mine tunnel.

The mine tunnel is only one person high. Once you enter, you can't even straighten your back. It's winding and full of oppression.

"This mine was dug through a hundred years ago. I only heard about it from the older generation of miners."

"The Hongshan Mine at that time was not controlled by the Immortal Sect, but belonged to a certain family."

"After digging through this place, the family quickly sent cultivators here. After a long investigation, they sealed this place off and no one was allowed to enter."

"Then the Hongshan Mine stopped working for a long time. It was not until recent years that it was reopened by Tianshuyuan. That’s why we came here to work."

After hundreds of years of excavation, the Hongshan Mine has underground mine tunnels that extend in all directions. If there is no one to lead the way, it will be a huge maze.

Luo You held the lamp and reminded the two to change their route.

At this time, Ji You stopped for a moment and looked at Luo You, and Luo You turned around and looked at Ji You.

When their eyes met, Luo You became a little nervous: "We... dare not trust immortal cultivators easily."

"You are doing the right thing. Immortal cultivators are not worthy of trust."

"You don't look like a cultivator."

Ji You smiled and said, "I am also a private cultivator. I originally wanted to become a bandit, but my family couldn't survive, so I had no choice but to join the Immortal Sect."

Luo You thought for a moment and then said, "After you enter the mountain, we will clean up this place, take away what should be taken away, and leave what should be left behind."

"Thank you very much."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Yuan Chen followed behind, looking at Ji You and then at Luo You. He felt that although he understood every word they said, it seemed as if it was encrypted.

Brother Ji once said that the brain can be quite useful sometimes.

But now that he has tried it, he still feels confused.

After a long time, the three of them passed through a long mine tunnel, and after coming out, they saw a dark and primitive forest.

Huge, towering ancient trees block out the sun, and the grass is so lush that the bare ground is almost invisible.

Ji You had never seen such tall and strong ancient trees. Some of them even had deep red grooves on their trunks.

Luo You said that he had never been here before, so he didn't know the exact direction, but he knew that the place they were looking for was probably to the west.

Afterwards, he said goodbye to Ji You and Yuan Chen and went back into the mine.

Ji You looked around and couldn't help but sigh: "This place... is definitely full of grandma spirits."

Yuan Chen didn't understand, and instead looked at Ji You: "Brother Ji, what exactly did you and Luo You talk about in the mine?"

Ji You walked forward with the sword in hand, and asked, "Have you ever thought about how he knew the route of this mine tunnel since it has been sealed for a hundred years?"

"Oh, that's right."

"I guess that after the evil creatures emerged from the ruins, they thought of many ways to escape and finally decided on one, but when we asked them, they didn't tell the truth."

Ji You waved his hand and cut off an old tree that was blocking the road. "They didn't think of rushing out head-on, but planned to use the mine tunnel to break through the mountain wall to escape. This mine tunnel into the mountain was discovered by them during their exploration."

Yuan Chen's eyes widened after hearing this: "No wonder they are panicking but not too desperate. Then what does he mean by cleaning up the mine?"

"I guess after we leave, they will leave something as a mark. If something desperate happens, we can use the mine tunnel they used to escape along the way."

"I also want to train my divine consciousness!"

After hearing this, Yuan Chen made a silent decision in his heart.

Just as the two continued to move westward, a huge roar suddenly came from not far ahead.

A strong murderous aura suddenly surged out, covering the sky and the earth.

Yuan Chen held his breath: "They found the entrance to the ruins..."

Ji You stopped and turned to walk towards the mine: "I have a bad feeling, let's retreat. I'll be a bandit and you go home and make plans."

"Brother-in-law, you promised me to rescue my sister, you can't go back on your word."
