Panlong Wall

Xuan Yangyang sat leaning against a thick tree trunk, surrounded by countless towering trees, the huge trees covered the sky, making the forest in this area always look dark.She roughly estimated that it had been at least three full days since she entered the psychic valley.Along the way, she encountered many obstacles. Although she dealt with them one by one, she didn't suffer any injuries, but her worry and uneasiness towards Zhou Mo always lingered in her heart. In addition, she walked almost without sleep, and her face was full of fatigue .But what made her even more anxious was that she was lost.

There are no roads in Tongling Valley, it is full of dense bushes and bushes, and you can't tell the morning and evening, and you can't see the position of the sun, moon, and stars. It's hard to tell the direction, let alone a newcomer like Xuan Yangyang I am a familiar passerby who has been here several times, and I dare not guarantee that I can get out of here.What's more, she has a weakness of her own, that is, her sense of direction is not very good, and this is the only place where Zhou Mo is better than her.

But anyway, she knew that the place she was going to was the Fire Spirit Phoenix Nest, which was located at the southernmost end of the Tongling Valley.Xuan Yangyang was born in a wealthy businessman in Pingyang City, and has lived here for more than ten years. Although she has never been to the Tongling Valley, she has heard some related things.In the valley, there are mostly rare and rare beasts or precious medicinal materials in the world. In addition to the basic common sense learned in the Eternal Sun Palace, I probably know which beasts or plants will appear near the Phoenix Nest.Tracking all the way, feeling the warmer and warmer air around her, she knew that she was at least heading in the right direction, but most of those beasts were flexible and cunning, for example, she was chasing a spirit deer here just now, who knew In a blink of an eye, the deer disappeared without a trace. She searched all over the area but couldn't find it. Now she became like a blind man again, unable to figure out the north, south, east, and west.

She sat down and took a short break while continuing to pay attention to her surroundings.Not long after, a spirit beast with long brown and black hair hanging down straight like needles and with two small round antlers on its head suddenly flashed past her vision.Hanging Needle Spirit Deer!Xuan Yangyang's mind was agitated, and he jumped up from the ground quickly, and chased after Linglu in the direction where the spirit deer appeared like a flying arrow.

She was in a hurry to catch up, fearing that she would get lost again like the previous few times, so she didn't pay much attention to the situation around her.At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared not far from her left. Both of them were very fast, and they were about to collide.Xuan Yangyang was startled, but his reaction was extremely fast. He forced himself to turn his body at an angle, barely staggering from that person, and just in case, he didn't forget to release two hidden weapons.But he didn't expect that the other party was also very agile, avoiding the hidden weapon lightly, and even threw a backhand at her.

Xuan Yangyang dodged in a bit of embarrassment, quickly dodged behind a tree, and said vigilantly: "Who?" Afraid that the other party would make another move, he secretly moved a sword pill.

The other party let out a "huh" and didn't make another move. Instead, he said, "Xuan Yangyang? It's me, Yin Jiyan."

The voice sounded familiar, she was half relieved, and cautiously poked out half of her head, and sure enough, she saw Yin Jiyan standing three or four steps away from her and looking towards her, her heart was full. Completely let go.

"Mr. Yin!" She rushed to Yin Jiyan's side, as if she had found a savior, her tone was a little excited. "Has Mr. Zhaoyuan come too?"

"Yeah, of course he's here. Oh, I've found you, you kid, why are you walking around..."

Yin Jiyan said a few words casually, Xuan Yangyang suddenly felt embarrassed, and was about to apologize, but saw him beckoning towards him, and then glanced up and down roughly, as if to confirm that she was not injured, and then Listening to him reassuringly, "Stop talking nonsense, Yuan Jin will lead the way, let's go, let's go to Fengchao first."

"Oh, good!" She hurriedly followed.

All the way unimpeded.When the three of them marched, they did not forget to ask Xuan Yangyang about the situation.

It turned out that a major event happened not long ago in the Xuan Mansion located in Pingyang City.In the middle of the night, most people fell asleep. Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the warehouse used to store gifts and collectibles, and then a raging flame burst out from inside. Several night watchmen came forward to check. People were all burned to death.Due to the ferocity of the fire, it was not completely extinguished until the next morning.Not only were the contents of the warehouse burnt to nothing, but the house itself collapsed due to broken railings.

It happened so suddenly that it didn't seem like arson. The night watchman seemed to be burned to death in an instant, without any signs of struggle.After checking and checking, no one can figure out the reason. The Patriarch of the Xuan Mansion was angry and distressed. He cursed the people under him for being useless, and fainted twice during the period.Someone stood up and said to Master Xuan that something was wrong, maybe it was not man-made, it was suspected to be caused by a monster, it is better to invite a monk and Taoist priest to take a look.

The most famous Xiuyang School in Pingyang City is the Xiuyang School, but the Xuan family is not like other big families in the city, they have little contact with the Xiuyang School and have no friendship.Speaking of the Patriarch of the Xuan Family, although everyone calls him Master, he is actually not old, and he is only in his forties. His greatest hobby in life is not pursuing immortality, but lingering among thousands of flowers, tasting fine wine and beauty, and indulging in the world. □□.Most people in the Xiuyang Sect disdain this, not to mention that Xuanfu is just an ordinary family to them, there is nothing worth worrying about, so they only send a disciple who has been new for less than two years to deal with it.

That new disciple's cultivation level was not enough, so he wanted to muddle things along on this page, he couldn't see anything left and right, he did a ritual ceremony hastily, and left the Xuan mansion that day, which made Master Xuan roll his eyes in anger, and passed out again.Everyone was worried, but someone said, Miss San Xuan went to some palace, I can't remember her name but I know she is also a great sect, her reputation is not worse than that of Xiuyang sect, why don't you invite Miss San to come back.

This third Miss Xuan is Xuan Yangyang.Her mother was Master Xuan's second concubine, who was also very favored at the time, but had a difficult labor when Xuan Yangyang was born. Although she was rescued, the root cause of the disease fell, and she passed away the next year.Master Xuan still loves this daughter very much, he has no worries about food and clothing, and responds to every request.She wanted to take in Zhou Mo, whose parents were dead and homeless, but Master Xuan did not raise any objections; she liked Zhou Mo and insisted on being with him, but Master Xuan agreed; even Xuan Yangyang proposed that he wanted to leave home to practice walking immortals When she made such a bold and extraordinary request, Master Xuan frowned at first to persuade him, but after a few words to no avail, he agreed, and even asked someone to take care of everything in Xuanyao Mountain for her and Zhou Mo.

So when she received the letter, she packed up her things without saying a word, and rushed back to Xuan Mansion with Zhou Mo from Yongri Palace day and night.Part of the reason for her haste is that she hasn't been home for three years.It's okay not to mention it on weekdays, but once this book came, she still couldn't forget the world of mortals, and she was really homesick.

Xuan Yangyang has been in the Eternal Day Palace for six years, so he is naturally stronger than that disciple of the Xiuyang Sect.Compared with her, although Zhou Mo is a half-baked guy, he is always useful.

After the accident in the warehouse, the scene environment has not been changed much.One is because the reason has not been found out yet, and Master Xuan didn't say anything about cleaning it up; the other is that looking around, this place is too tragic, not to mention scorched black, and there are obvious traces of extensive damage. There are several large pits, the paved bricks and stones are broken, and none of them are complete, and the broken rock corridor beams and columns do not seem to be burnt.As soon as you approach, there is an unpleasant smell that makes you sick, but it gives people a gloomy feeling in broad daylight, no wonder everyone stays far away.

When Xuan Yangyang and Zhou Mo arrived at Xuan Mansion, they got off their horses and landed on the ground. Before they could sit down and drink a glass of water to rest for a while, they rushed to the scene of the accident.Seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but gasp, thinking, some kind of monster must have entered this house.The two looked at each other, knowing that what the other was thinking was the same as their own.

Although the remaining evil spirit is weak, it is not difficult to find.The two searched the scene carefully for a long time, and pulled out a few bright red vine leaves from the scorched earth and rubble.

This is a bit unusual, judging from the location, it doesn't look like it floated in later, and the leaves have a special shape, there are no such plants in Xuanfu.Moreover, the most important thing is that everything next to it was burnt black, only these few vine leaves remained in their original state, without any trace of burnt.The two were suspicious, Zhou Mo rolled his eyes, thought for a while, took out the fire pocket, lit the fire and put the leaf on the tongue of the fire, the leaf was not afraid of the fire, and the meridians all over the place flashed a bright orange-red light , the leaves gradually become hot.

The two were almost sure at the same time that it was the red fire vine.

When in the Eternal Sun Palace, it is inevitable to learn to recognize some rare spirit beasts, exotic flowers and plants.Although many have never seen it with their own eyes, they basically know a little bit.In addition, the two grew up in Pingyang City, so they know this place somewhat.There are no such plants in Pingyang City, unless it is the Tongling Valley.

The Tongling Valley is not inside the city. It is located in the Tianxuan Mountain area outside the city. It has a vast area, spanning hundreds of miles. There are countless spirit beasts, gods and grasses, as well as vicious insects and poisonous flowers. It is full of dangers.There are tens of thousands of towering trees in the valley, covering the sky and the sun, the morning and evening are unclear, and there is no road. Compass and the like are useless here, it is difficult to identify the direction, and it is easy to get lost.

The most dangerous and mysterious places are the Fire Spirit Phoenix Nest and the Cold Snow Region.One is extremely hot and the other is extremely cold.The red fire vine grows in the phoenix nest, clings to the hot rocks, intertwines with each other, intertwined, and is not afraid of the scorching heat.

The red vine leaves still had a very faint demonic aura, but there was a different aura, not like a demonic aura, but the two of them specifically mentioned it.

It's really strange.Zhou Mo thought, why did the Scarlet Fire Vine Demon appear in the Xuan Mansion, and why it just destroyed the warehouse. Could it be that there are some treasures in the warehouse?Xuan Yangyang couldn't explain it for a while.

Later, when the two went to see Master Xuan, their hearts shivered again.

Master Xuan's Yintang was black, his face was swollen, and his eyes were blue. At first glance, it seemed that he was just angry and couldn't rest well, but Xuan Yangyang and Zhou Mo were ordinary people, and they could tell at a glance that there was a demon close by. His body was sucked of energy, and he lost both energy and blood, otherwise, with the bones of Master Xuan's forty-year-old body, how could he faint to death again and again.

Miss Xuan was so angry that she almost broke her chopsticks.She kept her expression on the face, and in her heart, she was criticizing her playful father, who really had eyes so white that he couldn't tell whether it was a human or a monster; at the same time, she thought to herself, I don't know if this monster next to her father is different from that red fire. It doesn't matter whether the vine is there or not, it's better to get it out quickly.

But they never thought that that night, before they made a move, the concubine who had been favored by Master Xuan for half a month suddenly came to the door.

The two of them already had doubts in their hearts, but unexpectedly, the woman revealed her identity after a few words, and she turned out to be the red fire vine demon.She was one-on-two without any fear, and she shot in the blink of an eye. Two vines as thick as human arms suddenly sprang out from her sleeves. He quickly evacuated from the roof with people.

Xuan Yangyang didn't react, the sudden blow made her lose her footing, and hit the wall with her head, her eyes were staring.When she finally realized it, she couldn't see anyone.She suddenly panicked, angry and anxious, but she couldn't attack. She forced herself to suppress the worry and anxiety in her heart, and chased after the evil spirit left by the red fire vine along the road until she stood in front of the entrance of Tongling Valley.

She is not afraid of all kinds of dangers ahead.But she also has self-knowledge, and she can feel that the banshee's strength is extraordinary, and she may not be able to rescue Zhou Mo smoothly relying on her alone.She took out a piece of summons paper, after thinking about it, she chose to send the message to Jiang Yuanjin, firstly because she had heard that they had gone to Yuqing Palace, and it would not be very far if they came from there; secondly, what happened For Guan Zhoumo, it might be more appropriate to find his master, Jiang Yuanjin, than his fellow seniors or Wu Zhiming.I hope that nothing unexpected happens to Zhou Mo, and I also hope that Jiang Yuanjin will arrive soon after seeing the letter. Before entering the valley, she prayed silently.

As soon as he entered the valley, all kinds of breaths were mixed, and the trace of evil spirit that traced the red fire vine demon before could not be felt at all.She had no choice but to go directly to Huolingfeng's nest, but she didn't expect to get lost in the valley. If she hadn't been chasing the Linglu deer and happened to run into Yin Jiyan, she might still be wandering around in the forest.

After Yin Jiyan heard this, he obviously looked preoccupied.He looked at Jiang Yuanjin who was walking in front, without any special reaction, his expression was as usual, he was focused on looking for something.He couldn't help kicking him, and muttered: "Hey, don't worry about the deer, I said, your apprentice is gone, why are you not in a hurry?"

Jiang Yuanjin stared back at him for a while, knowing that he was talking casually, he started a conversation with him, and said: "What's the use of being anxious, I'm just looking for it, the last time I came here was ten years ago, now here You changed your appearance a lot, and you don’t quite remember how you left...Hey, don’t stare at me, don’t worry, you’ll definitely find it! Speaking of which, you really care about Zhou Mo, you just met, right?”

Yin Jiyan complained: "So what? You are too careless about him, and taught him all kinds of messes, so that he has no ability to protect himself."

"The master leads the door, and the practice is up to the individual. At most, I will teach him the method of practice, and I will remind him when the time is right. It depends on him."

"quibble."

"Where is the sophistry. Besides, I didn't have a master to teach me at that time. I just figured it out on my own with my ingenuity, so I don't know how to teach my apprentices."

"You don't know how to teach, why pay for it?"

"If I don't take him in, no one will take him in." Jiang Yuanjin let out a breath, thinking that this deer with a pendulous needle is really hard to catch, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.But he said, "At that time, there were many disciples who wanted to join the Eternal Day Palace, but in the sect, they entered as soon as they wanted. The Eternal Day Palace did not accept people without talent or lack of talent. After one year of entering the sect In the meantime, if there is no master looking for income, there are only two ways according to the school rules, either go down the mountain and leave by yourself, or stay as a servant, Xiaoxuan should know this."

When Xuan Yangyang heard him mentioning himself, he was taken aback for a moment, and quickly responded twice.

Jiang Yuanjin continued: "When I saw him for the first time, I thought he was very special, and I had an indescribable feeling, and somehow I thought of you. It's strange to say that he doesn't look like you at all. There is no similarity in words and deeds. At that time, Zhou Mo had been in the sect for more than a year, and he had not yet become a master. I thought to myself, it would not have any effect to accept an apprentice anyway, so I asked him to write it down. I'm named."

Xuan Yangyang listened silently in the back. It was the first time she heard the story behind Zhou Mo's apprenticeship, and she couldn't tell whether Zhou Mo's luck was good or bad.

Yin Jiyan's expression became very strange for a moment, but in a blink of an eye it became normal again, urging: "I'm talking nonsense again... What are you thinking, find the way and save people!"

Jiang Yuanjin was a little baffled by what he said, but he still smiled, half-seriously, half-jokingly, and said: "This seems to be the first time you have worried me about other people's affairs."

Yin Jiyan blurted out: "Have I been in a hurry with you before?" He even thought about it for a while.

"Yes, I have."

"Why? Why can't I remember..."

Jiang Yuanjin was silent for a while with his back turned to him.Just when Yin Jiyan thought he would not answer, his voice came slowly, very soft, as if blown away by the wind, but it was just enough for him to hear clearly.

"for me."

The Huolingfeng Nest is a place of extreme inflammation in the psychic valley.As far as the eye can see, large chunks of dark brown rocks are twining and spreading everywhere, burning red fire vines and strangely shaped heat-resistant plants, as well as birdsong that can be heard from time to time.Flames and fireballs can be seen everywhere, and the golden-red fire light illuminates this place like a ray of light.

Here, taking in a breath, it feels like there is a fire in the lungs; exhaling, it seems to press out the fire.Xuan Yangyang felt that he was forced to learn a new skill - breathing fire.

If it wasn't for Jiang Yuanjin taking a cold pill for himself before coming in, his body would probably burn up within the breath.Even so, it was still uncomfortable.

She looked at the two people in front of them who moved freely and looked smooth, and did not take any precautions before they came in. She envied and sighed: It's different if you have a high cultivation base.

"How do you feel?" Seeing that her face was blushing a lot, Yin Jiyan couldn't help reaching out to touch her forehead. "Hey, it's a little hot, why don't you go outside and wait for us?"

Xu's face was too hot, Xuan Yangyang felt that Yin Jiyan's hand was icy cold, it was comfortable to put it on his forehead, and he felt better.She hurriedly said: "No, no, I'm fine. I'm not used to it when I first came in... Hehe, it will be fine after a while, don't worry about me, I can do it." She tried her best to adapt and asked, "By the way , where shall we find Zhou Mo?"

"There are many forked roads here, why don't we split up? There are a few dead ends and not deep, let's not go, just take these two main roads." Jiang Yuanjin said, "Should Xiaoxuan follow Ji Yan, or come with me? "

Yin Jiyan didn't wait for Xuan Yangyang to answer, and said first: "Xiao Xuan, come with me, let's go this way." He raised his chin in the direction he was going.

"Okay, then I'll go this way, be careful, if something happens, don't resist, just back out the same way."

Jiang Yuanjin was about to leave after giving instructions, but was stopped by Yin Jiyan.

"This one," he hesitated, "is it leading to the Blood Glass Pond, I think Zhou Mo won't be caught there..."

Blood Glass Pond, the residence of Phoenix Qingyu.

"I don't know if he will come back here after his resurrection. What if... Or, you can go another way? If you can't find it after searching all over, let's go together again?"

Jiang Yuanjin knew his worries and worries, hooked the corners of her mouth, patted his shoulder, and said, "It's okay, I will pay attention."

Seeing his insistence, Yin Jiyan didn't want to say any more, but kept telling him to be more careful, and watched him walk into the side road until he couldn't see the figure, and then set foot on the side road ahead with Xuan Yangyang.
