Chapter 161 Back then
"Just put it here. Thank you for your hard work."
When he heard the familiar voice reply, Ji Weihang had already approached the speaking position.
Under the shadow of the dense crown of a silvery-white tree, a woman in khaki clothes sat on a wooden chair, weaving something with slender and flexible branches. She spoke gently to a young woman who was carrying something.
"Have a cup of tea before you go."
A palm-sized wood spirit flew over, flapping its light green transparent wings. It was a natural spiritual creature with weak spiritual power. It used its spiritual power to hold up a cup of tea, and it looked trembling, but the water did not spill at all.
"Thank you, Senior Sister. Thank you, Mu Ling."
The young woman took the teacup, held it in her hands and waited for it to cool down. Then she remembered something and said:
"Senior sister, you asked me to inquire about the Mingyan Sect before. I got the news from Xuefeng Sect. The latest news is that Danxin Daojun seems to have returned to the ruins of Mingyan Sect. Although the teachers and elders did not allow us to interfere, they still found an opportunity and quietly installed a spiritual energy detector near Mingyan Sect. The spiritual energy fluctuations were abnormal not long ago."
Ji Weihang frowned slightly. These kids are so noisy.
"I see. Thank you."
The tea was already cold. The young woman drank it all in one gulp, carefully placed it on the spiritual power platform prepared by Mu Ling, and then stood up and said, "Senior Sister, I'm leaving now. I'll come get their homework later."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"It's no trouble, it's my duty."
After the young woman left, the young man continued to weave with his head down.
Ji Weihang spread out his spiritual sense to observe. The secret realm was very large, so naturally there was more than one person. However, this area seemed to be separated from other areas. People who were conducting agricultural experiments or practicing in seclusion in other areas with permission were all some distance away from this area.
After observing quietly for a while, when the young man's weaving was finished perfectly, Ji Weihang appeared and said, "Long time no see."
Of course, she could have stayed away from the show and just transmitted the message, but that didn't fit her purpose of testing other people in Kunling Sect.
Yi Gou looked up, with no surprise on his face, still looking gentle and indifferent, but with a hint of smile on his face: "Wei Hang, long time no see. I heard that you have achieved an out-of-body experience."
Although the two were of the same generation, they were about a hundred years apart in age. In addition, Yi Gou had a calm and steady temperament, so although they were friends, they got along more like sisters.
But that was all in the past.
Ji Weihang got straight to the point: "I came here to ask if other people know what happened back then? Is your absence from the world for many years related to that? Is the same true for other companions who I haven't seen for many years?"
Yi Gou's eyes swept over her short hair and the uneven scars on her arms, and then fell on her face. He said gently: "If you mean that I let you go, I told Master's wife after I let you go, and she didn't blame me. I didn't go out for many years because Kun Ling needed someone to serve him."
Yi Gou looked up at the silver-white trees, and then continued, "As for the others, it seems that since then, the treasures of each sect have undergone abnormal changes and need to be guarded by someone. From the outside world's perspective, everyone has disappeared."
The answer is subtle.
First of all, why did the various sects' Tianjiao have to guard the changes? They were all pillars of society, and cultivation was the most important thing. How could they not enter the world? The treasures of each sect needed someone to guard them, and it was impossible not to find someone else. It was the group that had the closest relationship with her, which made it hard not to think too much.
Secondly, it was too coincidental that the treasures of each sect underwent changes at the same time.
Ji Weihang figured out some of the deeper meaning and guessed that was all the other party could say. He did not ask any more questions and asked the second question: "I want to communicate with the Heavenly Dao. Teach me."
Although she didn't know which "god" responded to her senior sister and mistress, she couldn't avoid the law of nature anyway.
As the rule governing this world, Heavenly Dao needs to maintain the order and stability of the world, and the response of gods to the human world is the top priority that He must pay attention to.
Can't cross the line.
Yi Gou didn't care about her attitude and said, "Tian Dao hasn't appeared in fifty years, and he doesn't respond to any questions. Some say he wants to keep a distance from the human world, and some say he is in some bad state." He threw out a booklet and said, "I can't teach you the skills that only people in the sect can learn. This is the most common skill, you can take a look."
Ji Weihang took the "Tongtianlu", which was a very popular martial arts book in Jijiang Continent, and almost everyone had one, including her. But she suspected that there was other information mixed in it, so she put it into her Kungan bag.
Looking at Yi Gou, she asked, "You have been here for fifty years, and you still can't leave?"
Yi Gou looked up at the silver-white tree and said, "I want to protect Kun Ling."
Kunling represents the earth, and Kunling Sect reveres Kunling as the mother of all things. The silver-white tree is the most precious treasure of Kunling Sect. It not only indicates the prosperity of Kunling Sect’s development, but also serves as the invisible pillar of Kunling Sect. The state of this tree affects the fate of Kunling Sect.
Yi Gou is talking about Kun Ling and also about Kun Ling Sect.
The thought flashed through his mind, and Ji Weihang saw Yi Gou lower his head to open the box brought by the young woman, and check the various plants planted in different compartments. "You should leave quickly. I have to correct the homework of my junior sisters."
Ji Weihang left.
But not too far away.
She left the secret realm, floated above the Kunling Mountains, and flipped through the "Tongtianlu".
The first page introduces the concept of "heaven".
In ancient times, realizing that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was not enough to support the gods to reach a higher level of strength, Nuwa broke the shackles of heaven and earth, led all the gods to ascend, and left Jijiang Continent.
After they left, the gradually formed Heavenly Dao isolated the passage between the gods and the Jijiang Continent, thus preventing disorder.
All methods of communicating with gods either lead to the way of heaven or connect with gods with the permission of heaven.
In this situation, the help from gods to humans is decreasing, and humans gradually stop expecting gods to bestow their magical powers, and instead focus more on how to improve themselves.
[The Way of Heaven is a rule consciousness that has been condensed over time. It is omnipresent and ever-present. Everything in the world and all events throughout the ages are within its sight.]
Everywhere and at all times.
The fingers that were turning the page paused slightly, and the words I had heard before rang in my ears.
"Since the secret realm is everywhere and at all times, it naturally records what happened at different times~"
[It is said that the place where the Heavenly Dao is located is the best place in the world and the center of everything, with abundant spiritual energy. ]
This is very similar to the Secret Realm of the Ancients...
Glancing at the terraces built around the mountain below and the old women working there, she used her fingers to mobilize spiritual power and drew a door-opening symbol in the air.
As usual, the entrance to the secret realm opened. Before entering the secret realm, she deliberately waited for a moment, but nothing happened.
It seems that Kunlingmen is not prepared to communicate with her.
She walked into the entrance of the secret realm without encountering any hindrance.
——
Ping Yao, Thunder City
Minglei City is where Fu Xuan grew up. It is governed by the Lei Clan of the Eight Great Sects. The current city lord is a thunder-type mage in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Fu Xuan remembered the reason why he chose this place among all the cities in Pingyao - a city guarded by the eight major sects would be more stable.
She is an orphan, and although she is taken care of by official departments such as Waciyuan, a stable environment is also very important.
Fu Xuan, who changed his face with a magical treasure, stepped into the threshold of [Xing Zhou Shun].
"Looking for Lao Zhou." She said to the waiter who came over to meet her.
The waiter led her through a curtain into the backyard. In the open-air yard, a burly woman with a half-naked upper body was practicing boxing. Her punches were fierce and sweat was dripping. Her dark skin seemed to have a layer of luster.
Out of the corner of my eye I noticed someone coming. The woman finished a set of boxing moves, took out a towel from thin air, and walked closer while wiping her sweat. She said, "I haven't seen you before. What's up?"
Fu Xuan glanced at the waiter, and after the waiter left, he said, "Lao Zhou, it's me, Xiao Xuan."
Old Zhou paused in wiping his sweat and said with a smile, "The Cloud Cage Palace has taken 500 Spirit Crystals to hunt you down. Aren't you afraid that I will catch you and hand you over to them?"
"I don't know what you're talking about. The person wanted by Yunlong Palace is the one who attacked their grandmother, not me." Fu Xuan sat down on the bamboo chair next to him and poured himself a cup of tea. "The person on the wanted list is obviously wearing a mask. It could be anyone. How can you say it's me?"
How could a casual cultivator rob the things of a lady from a great sect with such confidence? That would be too foolish.
She was chased by them and had to flee everywhere because they had tampered with her qualifications to enter the secret realm, not because they saw through her disguise.
As for why Ruisi was able to recognize it, after all, most of the mass-produced spiritual weapon masks came from Yunlong Palace. They met when competing for the qualification to the secret realm, so it was normal for him to be seen through.
Speaking of which, after grabbing the qualification to enter the secret realm, she entered the game and forgot about this matter.
The secret realm of wind and sand is about to begin.
Pulling back her thoughts, she said, "You were the one who brought me to Pingyao that year. Do you remember how I got on the boat?"
It costs a lot of spirit stones to take the smooth-running cloud boat from the human world to Pingyao. How did she get on the cloud boat back then?
After wiping his sweat, Lao Zhou put the towel on his shoulders, poured himself a cup of tea, and said casually: "The people from Leimen brought you up."
Kaminarimon? Kaminarimon! Kaminarimon.
I see. I see.
"You came here with the group that was recruiting concubines for Kaminarimon, right?"
Old Zhou nodded, "Lei Sect brings new maids to Ping Yao every year to train their courage, and that time was no exception." He remembered something, "But you are not Lei Sect's new maid. You were asked to be brought along by their new maids. After we arrived, they asked me to put you in Wa Ci Yuan and left you alone. A month later, they returned to the sect."
This was consistent with her memory. The strange thing was that her memory of this was quite vague before, but for some reason it became clear only now.
Are you afraid that she will pester you, so you hide her memory?
After getting the information she wanted, she paused and asked, "Did any demons board the ship with us back then?"
Old Zhou was in the middle stage of the Golden Core, and he had a very good memory. He said without thinking too much, "At that time, there was a group of demons doing business who were just about to return to Pingyao, and they were on the same journey as you."
"Are there any characteristics?" Fu Xuan asked.
Lao Zhou said: "No, they deliberately concealed the obvious signs of bloodline."
Seeing that Fu Xuan was a little disappointed, she added with a smile: "However, they opened a restaurant in Minglei City. If you are interested, go and have a look." As she spoke, she gave the address, which turned out to be a restaurant that Fu Xuan was very familiar with.
"How come I didn't know that her house was run by a demon clan?" Fu Xuan asked in surprise.
Old Zhou took a sip of tea and said slowly, "This is a secret to begin with. Only our Xingzhoushun and the city lord know about it in the entire Minglei City. After all, it was opened by the demon tribe. If others knew about it, wouldn't it cause trouble?"
Fu Xuan thought about it and said, "That's right."
Generally speaking, most people naturally support trading with the demons, otherwise how could there be a big market in Yaohua City once every three months? But opening a shop in the city for a long time is another matter.
Now that we have the address of the demon clan restaurant, it's time to go.
"Thank you, Sister Zhou. I'm leaving now."
Lao Zhou hummed and warned, "I don't know what you are going to do, but be careful, they are quite powerful."
"Don't you want to persuade me that they are good demons and don't do anything?"
"You're asking even though you already know the answer." Old Zhou said unhappily, "How can I persuade you without knowing the previous situation? You're not a disorganized person, so why bother to say more?"
Fu Xuan curled the corners of his mouth slightly, lifted the curtain and went out.
After looking at the swaying curtain for a while, Lao Zhou lowered his head and was about to pour some water to drink when he saw a cloth bag left on the bamboo chair.
It was a bag of spirit stones, not much, but according to her understanding, this should be all of Fu Xuan's savings.
"Where did this kid make the money from... Could it be that he robbed Yunlong..." He thought of something and quickly kept quiet, throwing the bag of spirit stones into Kungan's bag, pretending that nothing had happened.
She sat down on the bamboo chair, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, and sighed.
The child has grown up.
