Cultivation of the cat

In the previous earthquakes and shifts, the place was only on the ground, but this time, it was in the air.

The monks in the hall felt that there seemed to be a dazzling light outside the hall door that was getting brighter and brighter, and they all looked out, only to see a piece of dappled and shining golden light the size of the sun flying from far to near in the sky outside.

It was Zhao Hehong, the only cultivator at the transformation stage in the temple, who was the first to spot the golden light and straighten his body, and he was also the one who was the first to loosen his guard.

"Don't panic, those should be the golden sparrows." Zhao Hehong just raised his voice and suppressed all kinds of surprised voices in the hall, when he saw that piece of golden light passing through the protective array above the Five Elements Sect without hindrance, Fly straight to the hall.

The closer the distance, the Nascent Soul cultivators with good eyesight, it is not difficult to recognize that the golden light is really composed of a large group of messenger gourds.

The closer the golden light was, the larger the area looked, and it flew straight towards the main hall, but it didn't land, and it went to a place higher up the main peak.

There was a brief silence in the hall because of Zhao Hehong's words and the approaching golden light, but soon, the discussion sounded again and became more heated.

Lin Mianmian saw a lot of sound-transmitting paper sparrows. In the sect, one or two small paper sparrows could often be seen flying around, delivering messages to fellow sects.Lin Mianmian has received such short-distance and convenient small objects many times, and he is already very handy in making them.

However, this Messenger Canary is different. Compared with the sound-transmitting Paper Sparrow, which can only travel short distances and is slow, the Messenger Canary is simply an updated version of it a hundred times. Borrowing the material of the glazed gold from the Spirit Mine, it is fast and long-distance. The engraving formation can act as an encryption on it, so it can be said to be a good thing for long-distance transmission.

However, the cost of sending the message canary is expensive, and it is a one-time consumable. If the uploading method can be used, the latter is more affordable after all.

Lin Mianmian could only think of one possibility for such a large number of canals.

"It seems that the light curtain may really be scattered." Yuan Zhaoyang looked at the sky outside the hall where the golden light had disappeared, and murmured the words, but there was no surprise, but a bit of melancholy.

It's just that Lin Mianmian's cultivation base is not high, and he has been in seclusion for these years and has little contact with the outside world. He also heard a lot from Yuan Zhaoyang and Abai about the changes in Nanhe after the isolation of the four places.Especially with the disappearance of the Nanhe Secret Realm and the lack of resources in the other three places, Nanhe is in a bad situation.At this time, the four places are likely to be connected again, why is Senior Sister Yuan like this...

Lin Mianmian looked puzzled, but Yuan Zhaoyang happened to turn his head and his eyes fell on himself. Was that the hesitation and... reluctance that Lin Mianmian had seen before?

Lin Mianmian had seen this kind of gaze before, almost a year after she started, when Yuan Zhaoyang was about to go to Wanyi Peak to retreat and attack the golden core for a few days...

The almost meaningful gaze was not as profound as it was at this moment.

Lin Mianmian's heart was shaken. All kinds of thoughts about the disappearing secret realm, scarce resources, and restricted cultivation were instantly cleared away, leaving only the shock and panic of belated awareness.

"Senior Sister, do you want to go back to Cangming Mountain?" Lin Mianmian asked very quickly, her voice trembling uncontrollably, her right hand unconsciously grabbed Yuan Zhaoyang's wrist, tightening it very tightly, she couldn't feel it at all now It's tight.

Yuan Zhaoyang was stunned for a moment, then smiled suddenly, the hesitation on his face was melted away by the smile, he raised his other hand and grabbed Lin Mianmian's wrist like a crab claw. The hand, the touch of the palm is distinct, it is the little girl's panic...

"Even if I want to go back, I will take you with me. What are you thinking?" Yuan Zhaoyang's apricot eyes stained with a smile did not see the previous Shen Yi, but he was a little bit annoyed, and said, "Besides, What is the situation now, it is not certain.”

Lin Mianmian looked at Yuan Zhaoyang for a long time, and saw that her expression did not change, and her tight body relaxed a little, but she still remembered the tone and expression of Yuan Zhaoyang's words in her heart, leaving a small gap that could not be wiped away. suspicious.

The current situation is not impossible to guess.

The use of the canary of the message in the same plot is slower than the extravagance of the message array.But because of the endless abyss, when it is necessary to send messages between the four places that cannot be communicated with the teleportation formation, the message cannon is the best thing.

Lin Mianmian had heard from A Bai, who always liked to run outside, that after the isolation of the four places, there were many sound-transmitting gourds parked around Nanhe's endless abyss light curtain.Most of them were sent by Nanhe sects to disciples who were in other lands, and some were sent back by monks from other three places who were trapped in Nanhe.The spirit stone in the canary will be activated when the light curtain on the tip of the canary's mouth disappears, allowing the canary to fly to the place where it should go at the first time.

Thinking about it, the other three places should have similar thoughts.

The piece of golden light that came back just now showed that there were a lot of goats, and it was probably the news sent back by those monks of the Five Elements Sect who were trapped in the East China Sea.

Although there is a secret magic circle, Jinque, who has been waiting by the endless abyss for so long, will not carry such confidential words.However, the fact that this group of gorse flew here already sent too many messages.

What Lin Mianmian could think of, most of the people in the hall would have guessed.

However, before the people in the palace could think more, the earthquake started again.

This time it was sudden and not weak, but it was not as lingering as the previous earthquake. It was just a huge earthquake that made most of the Golden Core cultivators stagger to the north before they had time to react, and then there was no movement.

Yuan Zhaoyang reacted very quickly. At the moment the earthquake hit, he held Lin Mianmian's wrist behind his back with one hand. Wang Ming'er gave it a hand.

Xiong Lanlan and Wang Ming'er stood up in a hurry to thank them, but they didn't realize for a while that the chinchilla hairball standing with Abai was actually more stable than them, and the little claws that stepped on the floor tiles didn't even have a place for the tip of the claws. move.

Not long after this huge earthquake, Du Yixi returned to the main hall and brought back more news.

The large group of goldbirds that flew into the Five Elements Sect like the golden sun array before were indeed from the East China Sea. It was the disciples of the Five Elements Sect who were isolated and stranded in the East China Sea that year. They have been sent to the Five Elements Sect in the past 20 years, and they stopped in the endless abyss. The other side of the East China Sea waited quietly.

In other words, no matter what is happening now or what will happen in the future, the light barrier between Donghai and Nanhe disappeared not long ago.

In addition, Du Yixi also received messages from some other sects in Nanhe from the message formation on the main peak just now. Although he doesn't know whether the land of Nanhe has moved as a whole, those sects that can be connected to the letter, whether it is The situation of the earthquake or the northward movement is the same as that of the Five Elements Sect.

At this point, it is not difficult for everyone to imagine the origin of the huge earthquake just now.

Could it be that the edge of Nanhe Land really filled the endless abyss...

The Five Elements Sect is located in Nanhe, and its position is further south. It will take some time to find out the situation in the north.

Du Yixi said that although a lot of things happened in Nanhe just now, the protection array of the Five Elements Sect is operating as usual, and he hopes that the monks in the temple will go back and restrain the disciples everywhere, and don't leave the sect for the time being until the situation is clear.

Most of the temples are Nascent Soul and Jindan monks who are in charge of each peak, and they naturally responded to the suzerain's order.

When Du Yixi sent them to leave, he asked Hengshui Peak to come over and sent a group of Jindan guests, and said that if the Five Elements School finds out about this strange situation, they will definitely share the news with them. If they are not in a hurry, they can stay for a while. .If anyone is eager to visit the Endless Abyss, the Five Elements Sect will not detain them. They have worked hard for them these years, and they can go to the Wanshitang to receive extra rewards before leaving.If there is no improvement in the distance between the four places, they still want to come back to the lecture hall, and the Five Elements Sect also welcomes them.

It can be said that under such circumstances, Du Yixi can still remember to arrange these guests, it is really very thoughtful.

Everyone in Hengshui Peak was grateful, knowing that now was not the time to talk too much, after thanking them again and again, they withdrew outside the hall.

Yuan Zhaoyang also wanted to leave with the crowd, but the little hamster who didn't know when sneaked over stretched out his claws and held down the hem of his skirt.

The hall was soon emptied, and Han Qingyao waved his paw to signal Xiong Lanlan and Wang Minger to go back to the yard first. Lin Mianmian glanced at Yuan Zhaoyang, reached out and hugged Jing Jing, trying to keep up with Xiong Lanlan and Wang Minger, but was caught by the little hamster A paw stepped on the instep.

Then Du Yixi waved his sleeves, only Du Yixi, Han Qingyao and Yuan Zhaoyang were left in the huge hall.

"The barrier of the four places has probably disappeared. I have already asked Zhao Hehong to take his disciples to the north, and the other three parties have also sent people, and we will hear back soon." Du Yixi glanced at Yuan Zhaoyang, "If The barriers of the four places disappear, are you and Abai going back to the Northern Territory?"

Because of the spiritual food sold by Qingxintang, Yuan Zhaoyang has a much deeper bond with the Five Elements Sect than other guest lords. Even if he wants to leave, it is obviously not an immediate matter. At this moment, Du Yixi is so anxious to bring up this question The question made Yuan Zhaoyang feel a little strange.

"I've been here for so many years, and if I get back to other places, I will always go back." All Yuan Zhaoyang could think was that Du Yixi might still want to continue the spiritual food business, so he asked her like this, so he said again, "The sale of spiritual food, if Sect Master Du wants to continue, it is not impossible. The four places are connected and the ingredients are abundant. When I try to make better spiritual food, the quantity will be lower and the price will be higher. The business can still be done if there are some people to help. When the time comes, Sect Master Du will send some people to help, and the spiritual food sold will naturally give a few more profits to the Five Elements School."

In the past few years, Yuan Zhaoyang and the others have made a lot of money from the spiritual food business, so it doesn't matter if they stop temporarily.But since Du Yixi wanted to continue, Yuan Zhaoyang naturally wouldn't be afraid of that little trouble. What's more, if Du Yixi was asked to take Lin Mianmian back later, he would be able to speak better.

Yuan Zhaoyang felt that he spoke kindly and left a lot of leeway, but while speaking, Du Yixi frowned slightly in front of him, but he didn't intend to relax at all, which inevitably made Yuan Zhaoyang feel a little nervous.

It's not like... these years have passed well, and it's time to steal the recipe, right?Yuan Zhaoyang didn't think Du Yixi would be such a person, but he still had reason, but he couldn't help but took half a step forward, protecting Lin Mianmian behind him.

It's good that Yuan Zhaoyang didn't move, but when he moved, Du Yixi frowned even tighter.

"The matter of spiritual food will be discussed later. If you want to go back to the Northern Territory, it is natural. Over the years, whether it is the lecture hall or the matter of spiritual food, you have helped the Five Elements School a lot. I will ask Wanshitang to give You prepare a generous reward, of course, if you are willing to return to the Five Elements Sect in the future, the Five Elements Sect will always welcome you." Du Yixi paused, then changed the subject slightly, "But it's hard to say what's going on outside now, in order to protect Disciple of my sect, just now I have made an addition to the sect-protecting formation, disciples within the sect are not allowed to travel without orders, and disciples outside the sect are also being recalled. But Ke Qing can still send out the Five Elements sect by receiving disciples from Wanshitang."

Du Yixi took a look at Yuan Zhaoyang, and then his gaze passed over Lin Mianmian beside Yuan Zhaoyang without any trace.

"We're not in a hurry. Wait a few days and we'll have a look." Du Yixi's pointed words had already made Yuan Zhaoyang's heart sink to the bottom.Although Yuan Zhaoyang didn't know why Du Yixi was like this, he still didn't want to take a step back at this time. Sometimes, one step is everything.Yuan Zhaoyang was heartbroken, and still made it clear: "At that time, if there is no major event, when the Five Elements Sect allows the disciples in the sect to enter and leave the sect, I hope the suzerain will allow us to take Mianmian back to the northern region."

Although Du Yixi's words were euphemistic, the meaning was already very clear.She never thought that Yuan Zhaoyang would use her excuse about safety to force her back so quickly, and she couldn't help being a little angry, revealing a bit of the coercion of the supernatural stage.

It's just that the coercion has dissipated before it even got close to Yuan Zhaoyang's body.

"After all, Lin Mianmian is a disciple of my Five Elements Sect. She has just practiced Qi and is safe in all directions. How can she go to places as far away as the Northern Territory. You and Abai are only Golden Core cultivation bases. It would be nice if you can take good care of yourselves on the way. The road to cultivation is long, and if there is a destiny, we will meet again in the future." Du Yixi has had many contacts with Yuan Zhaoyang over the years because of the spiritual food, and his temperament is similar. I would like to use my cultivation as a coercion, but I still want to persuade him.

"When Abai and I came out of Cangming Mountain, I was only a foundation-building monk, and Abai had condensed the golden core not long ago. We traveled all the way to Nanhe, although there were difficulties, but we were always safe and sound. Now that I am in the late stage of Jindan, I feel that Yuanying is hopeful, and with the spirit stones I have obtained over the years, I think I can still protect her." Yuan Zhaoyang felt that Du Yixi's persuasion came abruptly and strangely. There are loose restrictions on disciples, one can leave the sect to do missions after practicing Qi, and there are cross-regional travelers after foundation establishment, even if Mian Mian's cultivation base is weaker, with the protection of himself and A Bai, it will not disturb Du Yixi to stop him like this .

Unless... Du Yixi already knew the difference between Mianmian...

Yuan Zhaoyang refused to give up an inch of ground in the conversation with Du Yixi, but his heart broke out in a cold sweat from his sudden conjecture.

Du Yixi, who heard the words "Golden Core Late Stage", couldn't help looking at Yuan Zhaoyang a few more times. Yuan Zhaoyang didn't mention it, so she really didn't care. From entering the Golden Core Stage to the current Golden Core Stage, Yuan Zhaoyang It only took five or six years... This speed was never achieved even by her most talented senior brother at that time, let alone the younger generation.However, looking at it this way, it doesn't feel like it's a cultivation base piled up with a large number of spiritual stones that sell spiritual food... Du Yixi's thoughts were taken away, and he didn't speak in time, but was interrupted.

"Since Lin Mianmian entered the sect, he has been taught by Yuan Zhenren a lot. Although Yuan Zhenren is not a monk of our sect, they can be regarded as mentors and apprentices. Yuan Zhenren returned to the sect and took Lin Mianmian to teach a few along the way. It is also Lin Mianmian who has a good relationship, but the distance between the two places is far away, so what if you don't know the date of return?" Han Qingyao, who had been squatting at Lin Mianmian's feet for a long time and hadn't spoken for a long time, turned back into a human body, and walked slowly to the two people who spoke softly, but in fact couldn't stop arguing. between people.

When Du Yixi first spoke to Han Qingyao, she looked at her strangely. It was not until she heard the return date later that she swallowed the words she was going to say, and looked at Yuan Zhaoyang together with Han Qingyao.

Before he left, he asked about the date of return... Yuan Zhaoyang's uneasiness grew stronger, and he turned his head to look at Lin Mianmian, but in fact he was looking at the fat chinchilla held in her arms.

Jingjing met Yuan Zhaoyang's gaze, and blinked slightly.

With the support of the door, Yuan Zhaoyang gained some confidence in his heart.

"If the barriers of the four places disappear, it will be a major event in the cultivation world. We disciples who have been away for many years, we have to go back out of reason. It's just that the scenery in the south is pleasant. We will come back after a short tour in the north It’s gone.” The distance between the south and the north is very far, and the situation on the road is unknown. Yuan Zhaoyang couldn’t say the specific time, but he just showed that he had no plan to bring Lin Mianmian to live in Cangming Mountain.

Originally, Yuan Zhaoyang only planned to take Lin Mianmian out for a stroll. In the future, it would be better to practice and return to the Five Elements Sect than to stay in Cangming Mountain.But now, Du Yixi repeatedly blocked him, which seemed a bit strange, and made Yuan Zhaoyang's original desire to return to the Five Elements Sect to live there for a long time lessened a lot.Yuan Zhaoyang regretted it even more. He paid attention to etiquette before, and he didn't think that a trip north would be blocked so much, so he had to fight with Du Yixi so much.You must know that although Du Yixi asked the sect guards to stop the sect disciples from going out, they couldn't stop the quiet secret realm of the sect. Rather than saying that there are so many, making Du Yixi alert, it is better to take the cotton-padded secret realm away. Got it.

It's just...why does Du Yixi care so much about Mianmian...

Why, it's not because of what those guys in Zhang Xinglou said.If Lin Mianmian is really a ray of life in the world of cultivating immortals that the host said, and now the sect is released like a mud cow into the sea, what should be done if something happens.

If Lin Mianmian didn't have such an identity, Du Yixi was very relieved to hand him over to Yuan Zhaoyang to take him out for a walk.

such a pity……

"Lin Mianmian is still young and her cultivation level is still low, so there is no need to rush out to travel in such a hurry. When all the Golden Core cultivators of our sect return to the sect, and the masters of all peaks return to their positions, she will practice in the sect for a few more years and enter the sect. Establishing the foundation, wouldn't it be better to go out again." Du Yixi had said everything that should be said, and at this moment, with a few words, he clearly stood his ground.Anyway, in Du Yixi's view, Yuan Zhaoyang was incapable of bringing Lin Mianmian out of the protective formation.What I said before is also the affection of these years of dating.

Yuan Zhaoyang saw that Du Yixi didn't want to talk much, so he wanted to just retreat, anyway, it would be easy to take Mianmian out by borrowing the quiet door.

But for Lin Mianmian, there is still a big difference between going out on Ming Road and running away quietly like this...

According to Yuan Zhaoyang's temper, there is a way out, so why bother to continue inkling with those who make things difficult for the cat.Just thinking of Lin Mianmian, Yuan Zhaoyang always wanted to struggle.

"Just like Han Zhenren said just now, how much fate do I have with Mianmian as a master and apprentice..." Yuan Zhaoyang didn't like to define the relationship between the two parties in this way, but it can only be used at this time, but the words are not After finishing speaking, Du Yixi stopped him by raising his hand.

"The fate of master and apprentice is not worth the inheritance of the sect." Du Yixi is a little bit embarrassed now, even though he said the words, his face is a little embarrassing.

In recent years, Du Yixi has noticed Yuan Zhaoyang's contribution to the lecture hall and the Five Elements Sect.Naturally, he did not miss Yuan Zhaoyang's attention and careful teaching to Lin Mianmian.

Refuting Yuan Zhaoyang's words at this moment, Du Yixi felt that he had run out of words, and began to betray his conscience.

"In short, Lin Mianmian is my disciple of the Five Elements Sect, not yours. There is no reason for you to take it away as soon as you say it." Du Yixi also felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable in such a forced demolition. Now I really need to make a quick cut to end this matter sooner.

At this point, Yuan Zhaoyang's eyes darkened, he stopped insisting, and prepared to retreat.

Forget it, Du Yixi is like this all of a sudden, even before he could leave Mianmian here to wait for him to go back and forth north, but now he can't.

It's a pity that they ignored Du Yixi's words and left through the quiet door, fearing that they and Mian Mian would break off ties with the Five Elements Sect from now on, and walk around the people of the Five Elements Sect.

Yuan Zhaoyang came from the Northern Territory.In the Northern Territory, due to the lack of resources, human cultivators and monster cultivators do not get along well, and often fight, which is more chaotic than Nanhe.It is also because of this that some sects with rich resources such as Nanhe and Donghai in the Northern Territory do not look down on them and cannot put them on the table.

For example, the disciples of the Northern Territory Sect can redeem themselves.

In private, it is self-redemption, but on the surface, it is much better to say that it is to repay the cultivation of the sect.In fact, it is to leave the sect by giving rich resources, without hurting the friendship, and it will still be an old acquaintance when we meet in the future.

However, this kind of thing only exists in the small and medium sects of the Northern Territory, not in the big sects, at least Yuan Zhaoyang has never heard of it.

There are many demon cultivators in the Northern Territory, and there are also many battles between human cultivators and demon cultivators. Except for a few standing sects, small and medium sects fight each other, consume too much, and finally merge.This has caused possible conflicts between the individual and the sect, and self-redemption is also a matter of getting together and breaking up instead of breaking up.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing in Nanhe.

Judging by Du Yixi's appearance, if Lin Mianmian sneaked away, he would almost be a traitor...

Just when Yuan Zhaoyang's eyes darkened and he was about to leave, and he was looking for an opportunity to take someone away, Han Qingyao's voice suddenly appeared in his heart.

"Master and apprentice can't do it, can Taoist companion do it?"

"Yaoyao!" Almost at the same time, Du Yixi's sullen voice sounded.

These two...

Yuan Zhaoyang didn't have time to think about it any more, almost when the two voices sounded, he opened his almond eyes, and alertly took Lin Mianmian by his side two steps back.
