Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

The pace of life for cultivators is the same as that for ordinary people, sometimes fast, sometimes relaxed, with the same ups and downs, and there will always be ordinary days; the only difference may be time, cultivators perceive the passage of time longer, and may experience more ups and downs.

Just as it is always darker before the dawn, after experiencing danger and hardship, there is always a brief period of peace and tranquility.

Shen Yichen and the other two also enjoyed a leisurely time in the village with small bridges and flowing water.

Xixi did not pay Shen Yichen, but gave him some elixirs instead. The three decided to rest here for a day. After all, they had just recovered from serious injuries, and they needed to recover their bodies and calm down their tense moods!

The three of them didn't understand what was going on during the two sieges. One of them was going down the mountain for the first time, but what about the second girl? It was the first time she left home and didn't understand the right and wrong of the cultivation world. Although she was still frightened, she didn't get deeply involved.

Shen Yichen was very envious of the two girls because they were from a wealthy family and had both money and elixirs. The two girls did not mention Shen Yichen's practice of both good and evil, and Shen Yichen didn't care about it either. However, Mu Wanqian had a question in her mind but she could never find a chance to ask it.

The next day, the sky was filled with morning glow and the air was clear and refreshing!

Shen Yichen and Xixi stood outside the cabin, enjoying the morning breeze and looking at the scenery around them.

They were in a small valley with a river flowing slowly in it. On one side of the river was a cliff and on the other side was a green meadow dotted with a few red and yellow flower beds. The scenery was pleasant. At the end of the meadow was a grove of sycamore trees and next to the grove was a large yard surrounded by a fence. In the yard was a large thatched cottage, which was the home of the couple who saved them.

The place where Shen Yichen and the other two were at the moment was a small building in the sky, which was built by the couple for their son! They were the only family in the whole valley. Shen Yichen and the other two were rescued by the man by the river. After Shen Yichen woke up for the second time, except for sending some food, there was not much contact. Maybe in their eyes, there was a difference between immortals and mortals!

"Coward, you're up so early, are you feeling better?"

Mu Wanqian got up and walked out while yawning.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

Mu Wanqian was really lucky! As soon as she came out, she saw a very beautiful rainbow above the river!

Shen Yichen was slightly stunned and said to himself:

"This girl, how come she doesn't know how to be shy at all!"

It turned out that Shen Yichen and Mu Wanqian slept in the same bed last night. Although the bed was very big, there is a difference between men and women after all.

"Much better! Your medicine is really good! I have to get some too. For such a serious injury, a few bottles of medicine will make it half healed!"

There was sourness in Shen Yichen's tone, but envy in his eyes!

"Coward, do you have any spiritual gold? You don't even have worldly silver, and you still want to make medicine? Ha!"

Mu Wanqian looked disdainful!

"Spiritual Yuanbao? What is that?"

Shen Yichen looked curious!

"You country bumpkin, you know nothing, just follow me obediently!"

Mu Wanqian did not explain, but called Shen Yichen a bumpkin again!

Shen Yichen didn't ask any more questions. The more he asked, the more questions he would probably raise, and that would make him look even more unsophisticated!

The three of them did not disturb the couple, and they never saw their child.

Mu Wanqian suggested that they go around together!

The three of them came to the river. The river flowed faster and deeper near the cliff, while the water near the grassland was clear and shallow, flowing very slowly. In the clear water, fish could be seen chasing each other from time to time.

It was a rare opportunity to have some free time, so Mu Wanqian suggested going fishing. When Shen Yichen heard about fishing, he felt a little dazed. He felt it was so familiar, but he couldn't remember it!

"What are you doing, you coward? Come on down! I'll give you one ounce of silver for each fish!"

Seeing that Shen Yichen was reluctant to get into the water, Mu Wanqian started to provoke him!

So the two of them were like two children, playing in the stream and fishing at the same time. Mu Wanqian made up for the regret of not going into the Jade Girl River, but what about Shen Yichen? Looking at this unruly and lovely young lady, sometimes making fun of her, sometimes laughing, he was also very happy in his heart, and from time to time he stole a glance at the pair of delicate and smooth slender jade feet in the water, his heart was rippling!

Where is Xixi? She was sitting on the grass by the shore, quietly watching the two of them, with envy, blessings, happiness, and a hint of sadness in her eyes!

In the end, Shen Yichen didn't catch any fish because Mu Wanqian was always making trouble, either paddling or throwing stones.

Mu Wanqian was lying on the grass, with Xixi on one side and Shen Yichen on the other, and she said happily:

"I never thought that one day I would leave home and have such happy days outside!"

She seemed to have forgotten that she had a narrow escape from death the day before!

Xixi didn't say anything, just looked at the white clouds in the sky quietly. She was also very happy. As long as the young lady was there, she would be happy anywhere!

Where is Shen Yichen? Still thinking about the pair of jade feet in the water! He is really at the age of first love!

Turning to look at Mu Wanqian,

"You guys are going to Yingzhou, are you going home?"

I don't know whether his tone was one of reluctance or he just wanted to know the answer.

Mu Wanqian shook her head. She felt something was wrong, because her father, who loved her so much, didn't send anyone to protect her. She didn't decide whether to go home immediately or go around again, but she had to at least send a message to her father and mother. First, she had been out for too long, and second, the group of men in black were obviously killers, so she had to report that she was safe! She couldn't let her parents worry too much.

Xixi said something for the first time in a long time.

"What about you, bumpkin? Do you want to protect the young lady all the way home?"

Xixi seemed to be asking on behalf of the young lady, perhaps she knew what the young lady was thinking.

Shen Yichen was silent for a long time, and finally said in a firm tone:

"I have to go to the Hailing Lake in the vast desert!"

Shen Yichen felt something under his feet, and he glanced at it with his peripheral vision, and found that Mu Wanqian was intentionally or unintentionally touching his feet with her jade feet! Shen Yichen felt warm in his heart, and he responded intentionally or unintentionally.

Young people's love is really so natural and so comfortable! Under the blue sky and white clouds, on the green grass, the pair of feet quietly loved each other. No one said it out loud, but everyone's heart was throbbing.

"What are you doing at Hailing Lake? Are you looking for Sea Crystal Pearls? Do you know what Sea Crystal Pearls are used for?"

It was Xixi who asked the question. Mu Wanqian was immersed in that wonderful love.

"I don't know. I didn't come down for the treasure. I came down the mountain to find my mother!"

Shen Yichen did not hesitate and directly stated his purpose.

"Why is your mother in the vast desert?"

Mu Wanqian was a little curious.

"I don't know. I only have some memories from my childhood. I don't know anything else. Let's just try our luck!"

Shen Yichen said helplessly.

"What's your mother's name? What does she look like?"

Xixi asked.

"Boy, stop playing with your feet and hurry up. Is there something in the water?"

Before Shen Yichen could answer, a faint voice rang out in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Youyou, what do you mean?"

Shen Yichen didn't know whether his sea of ​​consciousness had recovered, so he didn't use his spiritual sense to investigate.

"The giant python from Lingxu Mountain just came to the deep pool under the cliff. I'm afraid he will recognize you. Let's go!"

Youyou said affirmatively.

"What did you say? How did that thing get here? Aren't we out of the Manghuang Mountains?"

Shen Yichen asked in his sea of ​​consciousness as he sat up.

He gently moved Mu Wanqian's feet away and said:

"Let's go, take a look outside the valley, and then decide where to go!"

Shen Yichen did not tell the reason for leaving.

"How should I know? That thing won't chase you, right?"

Youyou didn't know whether she was trying to scare Shen Yichen or was serious!

Mu Wanqian put on her socks and shoes with a blushing face without saying a word.

Xixi stood up directly and asked:

"Why are you so anxious all of a sudden? You don't have to be so anxious if you want to find your mother, right?"

Shen Yichen did not explain, but took Mu Wanqian's hand and walked out of the valley. He knew Xixi would definitely follow!

Mu Wanqian's face flushed, her heart was really beating like a deer, and she followed Shen Yichen out shyly. Shen Yichen had no time to think about these things at this moment! He was very scared, and he almost beat him to death last time. At this moment, all he wanted to do was to leave quickly! But he didn't use his power to fly. First, Youyou said that the giant python didn't move, but he was just worried about accidents. Second, he was afraid that the two girls would be suspicious. Once they said it, the giant python would hear it, and the three of them might die!

Shen Yichen walked out of the valley as if nothing had happened, but his speed was a bit fast! The way out of the valley was a long and winding canyon with cliffs on both sides, towering into the clouds.

After the three left, the three-eyed python whispered:

"He's not dead! How come I keep running into him everywhere?"

Seeing that the three of them were far away from the river and the terrain nearby was still so strange, Shen Yichen asked:

"Where have we escaped to? Have we escaped to the Manghuang Mountains again?"

Mu Wanqian didn’t care what he said at all. She just looked at the two hands holding together with affection all the way!

"How would we know? It was so dark, raining, and we were injured, so how could we care about finding the direction? But it's not north, so it shouldn't be the Manghuang Mountains!"

Xixi looked at the young lady, sighed inwardly, and responded to Shen Yichen verbally.

Shen Yichen whispered:

"I'm so scared, I hope it's not in the Manghuang Mountains!"

Patting his chest gently with his hands, he was really scared. After all, he had offended two ancient Manghuang tribes!

However, Shen Yichen and Xixi did not expect that the three of them were indeed still in the Manghuang Mountains at this moment, but they had reached the southernmost tip of the Manghuang Mountains, near the famous Manghuang Mountain - Wuheng Peak in the north of Yuyang County, and were far away from Lingxu Mountain!

The three of them didn't know how long they had walked along the winding path in the canyon. Anyway, Mu Wanqian wanted to walk as long as possible! Suddenly, they turned a big corner and felt a sense of sudden enlightenment, but the first thing they saw was a grave!

Yes! It is a grave, covered with grass!
