Is Master happy?

After passing through the misty cloud sea, the young man cautiously moved his sword to the bottom of the cloud sea, took out a black robe from his sleeve, raised his hand and threw it to Xi Ya.

"Put it on, so that no one will see you coming."

Xi Ya put it on his body silently, tied the rope, and looked down at the clouds, only some sporadic gray and earthy colors could be vaguely seen.

The boy chose to land outside the city. He was afraid of disturbing the mortals, but he didn't want to, so he drew his sword, and saw a Taoist priest in white flying past their heads.

"Whose Taoist priest is this, how dare he be so presumptuous in front of ordinary people!" He stomped his feet angrily, as if the person used fairy magic to hinder him.

"As you said, they all wanted to catch me, so they gathered here and turned this Kongzhou city into a half fairy land." Xi Ya covered his face more tightly, glanced at the young man, and said: "If we go in with the sword, I'm afraid no one will dare to stop us. If we walk like ordinary people, we will be stopped at the city gate and asked to be checked from head to toe."

The young man straightened his face, "Then let's fly in. Once you take off your black robe, it doesn't mean that you will tell the whole city that you are the master Yunzhong who has the book."

They landed on a roof beam. Looking at the scene in the city, the young man couldn't help but gasp. When he came last time, there were only a dozen immortals in Kongzhou, but looking at it now, the streets and alleys There are all immortals walking with mortals, and there are even a few blue birds delivering letters in the sky.

Both of them clicked their tongues, the young man patted Xi Ya on the shoulder, and sighed: "You are so honorable, there are many people in this city who were quite famous many years ago, and now they all come out of the mountain for you."

Xi Ya opened his hand and said with a sneer, "Don't say it's for me, it's for the heavenly book."

"It's a pity that the Heavenly Book has completely merged with your body, destroying your soul, no, destroying your body, no, if you want to get the Heavenly Book, you can only raise you completely, completely. Send it whole and whole into the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun, and refine him for 80 years."

"What did you say?" Xi Ya was startled when he heard the words, and grabbed his skirt, "Isn't Master's memory saying that the Heavenly Book is just my soul?"

The young man avoided her hand slightly, and took a few steps back with a smirk, "So that's how it is, but now... now that you've taken my medicine, the heavenly book and your body have merged into one..."

"You!" Xi Ya stepped forward and gave a low shout.

The young man was frightened into a cold sweat, took a few steps back, and explained with a laugh: "Didn't we agree that I will help you escape, and you help me test the medicine. I didn't expect this medicine to be really useful. I'm really sorry." live."

Xi Ya was very angry, she turned her back, gritted her teeth to suppress her anger, the city is full of people who want to take her life, now she dare not do anything.

The young man also knew that he was in the wrong, so he moved back to Xi Ya's side, glanced at her secretly, coughed, and said, "Should we go straight up the mountain, or find a place to stay?"

Xi Ya raised his legs and walked forward, "Go up the mountain, I have a few acquaintances on the mountain, go find them first."

She walked all the way up the mountain along the trail in her memory, encountered familiar scenes on the road, recalled the past, and felt a lot of emotion.

She walked along the path to the peach blossom forest, but she didn't want to cross the small river. What she saw was a depression, only bare trees were left in the gorgeous peach blossom forest, and the weeds grew wildly, almost reaching her knees. Biting her lower lip, she pushed aside the blades of grass and walked towards the fox cave. At any rate, the fox cave was still the same. She fixed her eyes and saw that there was still a bit of a monster inside.

She stood not far away, spoke softly, and called out: "Fox, fox, are you there?"

There was a muffled sound of something heavy falling to the ground from the hole, a gray fur fox hurriedly opened the door, limped and ran out, not daring to lift its head, and continued to talk, "The little demon is here, The little demon is here, dare to ask this fairy what's the matter."

"Fox, your leg..." Xi Ya was shocked by its downcast appearance, and couldn't help but take two steps forward, staring at its leg, "Is this interrupted by someone?"

The gray-haired fox was a bit confused, and secretly looked at her. Seeing that she didn't show any displeasure, he stared straight at her. After a while, he blinked his eyes a few times, and said in disbelief, "You, you Is it Xiya?"

"it's me……"

"Hey, how come you admit it directly, so you're not afraid of getting into trouble?" The young man was in a hurry. He came over in a few steps, and was about to pull Xi Ya away. "This fox has restrictions set by other immortals, so it must be You have been coerced, maybe you are being forced to inquire about your whereabouts, you can't stay here for long, let's go quickly."

Xi Ya hesitated and lowered his head, the fox looked at her with glazed eyes, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes, "What he said is right, I was indeed coerced, and I am waiting for you to show up here, I need to wait for you to show up. You will be free only after you have been informed.”

"What kind of restriction is it, you may be able to see it?" Xi Ya gently held the boy and asked.

"It shouldn't be meddling, let's just leave it alone, alas...it's hard to protect yourself now, you still have time to meddle in other people's affairs."

Xi Ya shook his head helplessly, "It's not meddling in other people's business, the fox has guessed my identity now, if we leave, it will report the news, then it can only wait for others to chase us down, so It would be better to untie its restraint, take it away, and cut off its way down the mountain to report."

"...The words are reasonable," the boy hesitated for a while, "There is an easier way, why not take its life directly..."

Xi Ya waved his hand, "It's okay, but I never kill innocent people, so I can only trouble you to do it."

"If you don't kill innocent creatures, am I the kind of fairy who kills innocent creatures?" The young man jumped angrily upon hearing this.

"Then there is only one way."

"...you go to the side." Gritting his teeth, the young man pushed Xiya to a distance, turned around and looked at the fox, he couldn't help sighing, lamenting that he was just a errand for others, and then raised his hand and pressed it on its head, "maybe It hurts so much, you hold it back, but if you make any noise, we will leave right away."

The fox nodded timidly, "Understood, thank you Xianjun."

He said it was in pain, and it really hurt. The fox didn't dare to move, and didn't dare to make a sound. It just pressed its four paws hard into the ground. The nails on the paws were split open, and the blood was stained red. Loess, when the boy stopped, the fox fur all over his body was soaked.

The young man grabbed the fox by the back of the neck, threw it into Xi Ya's arms, and said in a hurry: "Go, go, go, once the restriction is lifted, the immortal who set the restriction will know, so maybe he will chase after it." Come and find out."

Xiya didn't dare to delay, hugged the fox and chased after it, and the two of them used the technique of shrinking the ground to go to the top of the mountain.

"Xi Ya, are you planning to go back to your master's bamboo house?" The fox looked at her with weak eyes and asked, seeing Xi Ya nodded, he smiled wryly and said, "No, there are many immortals beside the bamboo house. The camp is set up, and now you are throwing yourself into a trap."

"It's okay, I know another path." Xi Ya comforted it softly, "Fox, let me ask you something, do you know where Zhuo Zhuo went?"

"Zhao Zhuo?" The fox coughed a few times in a low voice, "The little peach blossom demon ran away with her carp spirit when there were immortals living in Kongzhou, alas... I should have gone with her in the first place."

"So I escaped..." Xi Ya heaved a sigh of relief, and asked again: "The mountain wolves, have you contacted them?"

Speaking of this, the fox lowered its head slightly, its eyes were covered by gray fur, and it looked extremely lonely. The tail under its body flicked slightly, but it didn't reply.

Xi Ya had a bad feeling in his heart, "They..."

"Dead." The fox said in a hoarse voice, "A few years ago, there was heavy snow covering the mountains, and there was nothing to eat in the mountains. A few ignorant juniors came out to hunt and kill people, and the people in the city wrote down the grudge. Oh, a lot of immortals have come these days, once the prefect of Kongzhou told the story, they took their hands and wiped out the mountain wolf clan, not even a wolf cub was left behind."

With a staggering footstep, Xi Ya slowly stabilized his figure and continued to rush forward.

The fox looked at her worriedly, "Xi Ya, are you okay?"

"It's nothing," Xi Ya whispered back to it, "but... karma... that's all."

The fox opened his mouth slightly, stared at her face covered by the black robe, and smiled wryly for a while, "Xi Ya, you really...grew up, more than 400 years...we have been separated for so long, I almost recognize the fox. I can't leave you."

"I almost didn't recognize you just now, you are so disgraced now, you can see the suave and suave appearance before." Xi Ya teased him.

"Hey, I fell into the trap if I didn't pay attention, don't mention it." The fox was dejected, "Next time I must avoid those fairies."

The two of them walked all the way to the top of the mountain before stopping. Looking forward, they could vaguely see a figure flashing.

Xiya headed towards the forest, and waved his hands to call the boy to follow. The two looked around, cautiously, not daring to make the slightest sound. They walked along the grass and deep forest for more than half of the hill. A stone path can be vaguely seen ahead.

"This leads directly to the backyard of the bamboo house," Xi Ya squeezed lightly in the void, and turned to look at the young man meaningfully, "We have entered the barrier of Master, and now I am even more curious about your identity, even Master's knot. The world does not guard against you."

The young man coughed twice, and hastily changed the subject, "The enchantment that Yun Zhongjun set up is so big that it almost covers the entire mountain."

The fox scratched the hair on its head with its paws, and answered his words: "Not only that, but when you look in from the outside of the barrier, you can only see a mist, which is a good place to avoid people's eyes and ears."

The two of them went up the path, with quiet bamboo forests on both sides, and when they reached the depths, there was actually a small hot spring with steam wafting slowly.

"Wonderful, wonderful, Lord Yunzhong has chosen a treasure land." The young man sighed.

Xi Ya put the fox on the ground lightly, and said to it: "Go to the spring water first and wash off the fur on your body."
