The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 246 Xiu Xiu
Qianhe Sand Land is located in the southwest of Qiaoshan.

Lin Bai and Pei Ning did not dare to go back to Qiaoshan, and went straight east towards Mianlong Mountain.

Perhaps because of the integration of the small world, the storm in the sand became stronger and the wind direction was no longer the same as before. Instead, it was changing from east to west and was unpredictable.

Moreover, the rumbling sound did not stop, as if something exploded.

Lin Bai and Pei Ning did not dare to be careless and walked carefully all the way. Within two days, someone was coming towards them.

Due to the wind and sand, it was impossible to make out her appearance or clothes, but I could vaguely see that she was a female cultivator.

"Fellow Daoist, please stay!" A tender voice came, like a clear spring in the sand, "Are you two going to turn back? Do you know where the strange movement in the sand came from?"

The woman spoke in a sweet voice, but did not take a step forward.

Lin Bai and Pei Ning looked at each other and thought that something had happened.

"The sandstorm is so fierce here that we can't go any deeper. We were about to withdraw, but we haven't found the origin of the strange phenomenon yet." Lin Bai said loudly.

"Really?" The female cultivator lowered her voice a little, showing some curiosity.

"I never lie to my fellow practitioners." Lin Bai replied.

The woman remained silent, and after a while she smiled shyly, "Hahaha! How dare you deceive me!" The female cultivator laughed even harder, "You two don't look tired at all, but instead you are being careful. You must have found a treasure! Hand it over quickly!"

As he spoke, the man flew up, flashing swiftly in the wind and sand. Then there were strange laughters all around, and there were actually three people lying in ambush.

Lin Bai and Pei Ning dealt with the roadblock and left one person alive, who was the female cultivator who had spoken earlier.

This female cultivator was not very old, with delicate skin and tender flesh, and she looked quite good. She was wearing very little, and there was a charm in her eyes, which made her look quite coquettish.

"Grandpa, please spare me! Grandma, please spare me! Fellow Taoist, please spare me!" The female cultivator knelt on the ground and kowtowed. One of her arms was severed and there was a fist-sized hole under her abdomen. The wound had turned into black charcoal.

There were three mutilated bodies beside this person, two men and one woman.

"What's your name, where are you from, and what do you do for a living?" Lin Bai asked.

"Master, my name is Desert Eagle, and I am a casual cultivator." The female cultivator's hair was disheveled, and her face was covered in sweat and dust. She spoke tremblingly, but she did not dare to stop. She said honestly, "I have always been hanging out in the east of Qianhe Desert, and I call the other three brothers." She pointed at the mutilated corpse with one arm, holding back tears and forcing a pitiful smile, "My cultivation is low, and I can only do some low-cost business. People call me Desert Eagle."

"You're not that good at flying an eagle." Lin Bai laughed.

"Once I meet a real dragon, I can't fly anymore." Sha Ying'er was very humble. Even though he was seriously injured, he did not forget to expose half of his shoulder and squeeze out a wink.

Pei Ning was on guard in the distance. When she heard these words, she actually looked over here and shook her head helplessly.

"Why are you here?" Lin Bai asked again.

Shaying'er immediately started mumbling again.

It turned out that it had been nearly two months since the strange changes occurred in the small world, and the roar had continued for a long time, and the roar continued in the sand.

When such a strange phenomenon occurred, people who were unaware of the situation thought that some rare treasure had appeared in the world, which is why it attracted desperate criminals.

Many independent cultivators and descendants of sects and families entered the Thousand Valleys Desert, hoping to get a chance.

Sha Ying'er and the other four also had the same idea, but they couldn't find where the roar came from, so they decided to rob someone, and they got some small results.

"Is there any unusual movement in Mianlong Mountain?" This person was doing business on the east side of Qianhe Sand Land, which was not far from Mianlong Mountain, so Lin Bai asked this question.

"I haven't heard of it." Sha Ying'er shook his head repeatedly.

"Is there anything unusual in Qiaoshan? What are the movements of the three major sects?" Lin Bai asked again.

"I haven't heard of it." The female cultivator kept shaking her head.

He knows nothing about anything. He is not a qualified casual cultivator!
Lin Bai thought about it and saw that there was nothing to ask. Since the female cultivator was about to get naughty again, he quickly ended her life.

"The name of Desert Eagle is unlucky. I should be a good person in my next life." Lin Bai muttered, collected the spoils, and moved forward with Pei Ning.

The two were more careful, but they still encountered quite a few independent cultivators, most of whom were in the Foundation Establishment stage, with a few in the Golden Core stage.

He encountered several ambushes and a few head-on encounters, but nothing dangerous happened. Instead, it gave Pei Ning an opportunity to practice his sword skills.

The two men still did not dare to be careless. After working hard for half a month, they finally got out of the Qianhe Desert.

Seeing the lush green forests again, Lin Bai and Pei Ning felt a lot more relaxed.

After a short rest, continue heading east.

With no regard for seeking good fortune or avoiding danger, the two men continued walking slowly for another five days until they saw Longmenfang.

Longmenfang is a good place, located at the foot of the northern side of Mianlong Mountain. It has always gathered many independent cultivators, and people from Qiaoshan School and Yunxia Sect come here to have fun from time to time.

This place used to be a bit messy, but after the fox incident, the Qiaoshan sect cleaned it up, and now the three major sects are stationed here. Longmenfang actually has a decent atmosphere.

Of course, the filthy places are still there, but they are much more hidden.

Lin Bai and Pei Ning did not enter Longmenfang.

"Please give me a letter, fellow Daoist." Lin Bai stopped a lone cultivator and took out the letter.

"We won't bring you things for nothing!" This casual cultivator was a Qi cultivator. Seeing that although Lin Bai was in the foundation-building stage, he didn't look like a bad person, he put on the arrogance of a casual cultivator and asked for travel expenses.

"Of course." Lin Bai gently pushed the letter over and said, "Send it to Jiang Yu of Jiang Clan in Qiaoshan. She has her own spiritual stones to send to you."

"Pay on delivery? Senior, are you kidding me?" The Qigong cultivator was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Are you talking about the Jindan Jiang Family?"

"That's right!" Lin Bai said with a smile.

As expected, the Jiang family had a good reputation. The cultivator accepted the offer and quickly headed north.

There was nothing important written in the letter, only the word "drinking". When Jiang Yu handed it to Jiang Xiaobai, the girl naturally knew that it was the place where she, Lin Huang and the other two drank in the past, and it was also the place where she built her foundation.

Lin Bai was afraid that the casual cultivator would not be able to accomplish his mission, so he stopped another one and asked him to pass the message to Fengming Pavilion.

The letter only contained the word "drinking". It was addressed to Zhu Yuhui, asking her to pass it on to Miaomiao.

"You have escaped from danger, but you did not report to the Gu family, but went to Jiang and Zhu instead. Don't let the Gu family hold a grudge against you." Pei Ning smiled. "If Grandpa Gu is only so broad-minded, why should I follow him?" Lin Bai said shamelessly. After saying this, he remembered that Aunt Gu seemed to have a good mind. Although she was a little thin, she was still quite strong. It was just hard to know the details, after all, he had never measured her.

The two chatted and went into Mianlong Mountain.

I haven't been here for many years. The green mountains and streams are still there, but the roads have changed a lot.

The two went deeper and deeper and came to the old crow's territory.

Gu Feixue had killed one before, but now there is a new crow. However, it is only in the initial stage of foundation building, so there is no need to worry.

Lin Bai didn't hang up the fox fur, he just took it as a way to relax.

They came to the place where they used to drink with Huang Ruhua and Jiang Xiaobai. They chatted for a while and then went into the cave.

"Is this the place where you and Jiang girl had an affair?" Pei Ning asked after seeing the stone bed in the cave.

"The mountains are dangerous. Our top priority now is to find Fairy Chenyu." Lin Bai said.

Pei Ning sneered a few times and didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that there was no note left by Huang Ruhua, the two of them rested for half a day and then set off again.

We followed the old road peacefully all the way to Chuanshan Valley.

After walking for a while, they saw the stone lying across the canyon, which was where Tie Huasheng had faced the thunderstorm in the past. However, things had changed and it was now overgrown with weeds and birds had built their nests on it.

The two entered the hiding cave of Tie Huasheng and his apprentice, walked inside for a while, and after completing the tour, they came to Huang Ruhua's residence.

"Is this the place where you and Yang Huan had an affair?" Pei Ning looked into the small cave for a while and then spoke again.

"Come to think of it, I haven't seen Huang Ruhua for a long time." Lin Bai sighed, "In the past, she followed Tie Huasheng, and the two were like father and daughter. Now she follows Fairy Chen Yu, and I don't know what the situation is like for her."

The two did not stop and continued forward, and saw a gap in the valley. After walking along the gap for a while, they suddenly saw a group of monkeys playing.

Previously, three factions entered the mountains to fight for the fox, and these monkeys suffered a lot. But now, they are reborn.

Although monkey wine was brewed again, the monkey group was seriously damaged and now the leading monkey was only at the Qi training stage.

After stealing the monkey wine, Lin Bai left behind a few spiritual fruits he picked up on the road, and a few bottles of Tiger and Wolf Pills before leaving with Pei Ning.

After leaving the valley, continue south.

There were more and more monsters, but most of them were in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so the two were naturally not afraid.

However, being here, Lin Pei and the others had no intention of provoking the monsters, so they hid whenever they could.

"This is Fairy Chen Yu's territory. She is always petty and will not let go if she finds any mistake you make. She will make trouble for you and bully you severely." Lin Bai spoke from experience, "So, we need to be careful."

"If my daughter is constantly targeted by evildoers, I will be more ruthless than Fairy Chen Yu." Pei Ning said.

"..." Lin Bai couldn't explain the reason and didn't dare to say more.

After walking for another two days, we saw a peach blossom forest.

The peach blossoms are in full bloom, and petals fall when the wind blows.

Once you enter, you will see green grass and wild flowers under your feet, and when you look up, you will see green deer and cranes, dancing butterflies and singing birds. It seems like a dangerous place.

Going further ahead, there was a small pool of water, three meters square.

When I first arrived here, there was a stone island shaped like a millstone on the small pond, but now it is gone.

Looking into the pond, I felt it was dark and had no idea how deep it was.

The two of them inspected the place again, and after seeing that there was no danger, Lin Bai closed his eyes and sat down, with Pei Ning guarding him beside him.

When I came to the stone plate, I saw a ray of green and moonlight white on the mist.

I rested for a while and calmed my mind. Then, my mind moved, and the mist rolled up, and the moon disappeared.

After another half day of silence, he saw the moon-white color slowly condensing.

Lin Bai absorbed the mist, and in the blink of an eye a peach forest appeared on the stone plate, with a small pool of water in the middle.

This is exactly where Lin Pei and the others are now.

A bright moon is reflected in the deep pool, with a gap formed by the outer fog.

The moonlight entered here, and after circling for a long time, it slowly retreated.

The message has been passed on, and Xiuxiu must understand the meaning.

"Logically speaking," Lin Bai opened his eyes and felt out the fox fur, "this thing came from Fairy Chenyu, and she has always been prudent. We are so close, she should have noticed it. Since she noticed it, she should have come to take a look, but Fairy Chenyu didn't come. I guess she is concentrating on meditation." He sighed and continued, "Although you and I have the intention to show respect to the fairy, we don't know how to do it!"

Pei Ning smiled when he saw Lin Bai trying to speak well of the fox. He had been saying bad things about the fox before, but now he was praising it.

"Maybe there is another reason." Pei Ning said with a smile.

"That's right. The fairy is very busy. Even if we have a secret to tell you, we have to wait a while." Lin Bai continued to sigh.

After they finished talking about useless nonsense, they discussed what to do next.

After waiting for half an hour, the water in the pool suddenly surged.

Soon, a person came out, "You're here at last!" Xiuxiu lay by the pool, with clear water on her face, like a lotus flower emerging from the water. Her eyelashes were curved, and the corners of her mouth could not hide her joy. When she saw Pei Ning again, she was stunned for a moment and whispered, "Why are you here too? I thought he was alone..."

She looked at Pei Ning, seeming a little scared.

"Will my presence hinder your solitude?" Pei Ning squatted on one knee beside the pond, grabbed Xiuxiu's chin with one hand, lifted it up, looked into each other's eyes, and said with a smile: "You are happy and carefree, with spring in your eyes. I guess you are lonely living alone, it must be because Fairy Chen Yu is not at home, and no one cares about you."

Xiuxiu blushed and hid in the pool again.
