Chapter 65 Transverse Incident
Zhang Ziguan is ready to live in the cave for a long time. He plans to wait for a year or ten months, and then return to Kunlun City after Guan Xiaoshan is advanced to an intermediate real martial artist. He really doesn't have the courage to go on the road alone. Unexpectedly, after only three and a half months, Chi Lingxin successfully advanced, and in another half a month, Guan Xiaoshan also advanced. Hearing the news, Zhang Ziguan was surprised and happy. He was so happy that he could finally leave. What surprised him was that the other party's progressed too fast, and he was afraid that his level would be the same as himself before long.
Suppressing his surprise, Zhang Ziguan found Guan Xiaoshan and earnestly persuaded him, "Biographer, it's time to turn back to Kunlun City; the fierce spirit likes Maodong, let's go while it's cold now; if you stay, it will be spring. It's very dangerous on the road!"
Guan Xiaoshan looked up. At this time, it was the end of winter and the beginning of spring. The two days were not good, as if in the middle of winter, the lead-gray clouds were densely drooping, as if it was going to snow. He looked at the sky for a while and then said, "Brother Ziguan, it will be safer when the snow falls. How about leaving when the snow falls?"
"All work! I listened to the biographer--" Zhang Ziguan was relieved. As long as Guan Xiaoshan was willing to leave, it didn't matter two days earlier or two nights later.
Zhang Ziguan is determined to travel with Guan and Chi, not only because of the task assigned by Mushan, but also for his own safety. He secretly estimated many times that although these two people have just advanced to be intermediate real martial arts masters, their strength is very extraordinary, and it seems that they have the possibility of defeating senior real martial arts masters. The best thing is that the two do not ride spiritual pets at present. If they encounter them on the way home, it is easy for him to get out of the dust, but these two people will fall behind and their opponents. Entanglement became the best cover for him to get out. It's really difficult to find such a best companion, so Zhang Ziguan is willing to endure and continue to wait.
This time the wait was very short. That night, the heavy snow fell on the ground as desired and spread a thick layer. The next morning, Zhang Ziguan opened the door and looked at it, and immediately shouted, "Biographer! It's snowing! It's time to start--"
The excited shouts did not get the response they deserved, and there was no movement when the earth cave stone next door closed the door. He ran over impatiently and shouted through the big stone hole: "Biographer - it snowed so hard last night -"
After only shouting twice, he automatically closed his mouth. The cave was quiet, neither the whimper of the little white tiger nor the shouting of the red spirit, which was very different from the past.
In surprise, he moved the door and shouted "biographer" tentatively. He bent down and got in without a response.
The cave is empty and looks very clean; not only is there no shadow of Guan, the red two people, the little white tiger, the little crocodile, there is no skin debris, and even the bones, tusks and fur of aquatic monsters, dragonscorpions, red-eyed wolves and other prey that have accumulated for several months.
Before this, Guan and Chi had never invited Zhang Ziguan into the cave to talk. Zhang Ziguan was reserved and did not take the initiative to visit; so much so that the three lived next to each other for nearly five months, and it was the first time for him to enter the cave where Chi lived. Although it was the first time, he immediately realized that something was wrong when he saw the situation in the cave.
"I'm leaving..." Do they think that I'm waiting here to share the harvest of the collection... They didn't want to share it with me, so they sneaked away..."
Thinking of this possibility, Zhang Ziguan was black in front of his eyes and almost pissed off. He just wants to return safely! Although the harvest collected is quite abundant, he really doesn't pay attention to the conscience of heaven and earth. After waiting for a long time, he was about to end the suffering, but the hope of walking together was empty because of the other party's misunderstanding. He still had to venture back alone. Thinking of this, Zhang Ziguan couldn't wait to find Guan Xiaoshan immediately and announce loudly to the other party that he just wanted to find a companion, and the harvest collected could not be taken.
"Idiot! Stupid pig! I don't believe that you two can bring so many things back to Kunlun City safely..." Zhang Ziguan wanted to cry but had no tears, so he had to curse an rage. Finally, he climbed out of the cave helplessly, rode on the one-horned rhinoceros uneasily, and embarked on the journey home alone.
Zhang Ziguan wronged a good man. Guan Xiaoshan sneaked away not out of greed, but to cover up the identity of the Red Spirit. The journey of the turn is thousands of miles away, who knows what danger will be encountered. For the sake of safety, Chi Lingxin will unlock the sealing spirit and restore the real body of the spirit owner when needed. Zhang Ziguan can't let Zhang Ziguan know anything about such secret things, so he chose to sneak away. As for the harvest collected, as long as Zhang Ziguan can safely return to Kunlun City, there will be no less.
"Go-go back--"
When Zhang Ziguan cursed antagonized, the earth cave was 30 miles east, and Guan Xiaoshan and his party appeared from the dense forest and went back on the road. In the middle of the night, Chi Lingxin quietly transferred the things he should bring. Guan Xiaoshan rushed to cut wood overnight and tied a large skateboard about one and two meters wide, about three meters long and raised at the front end.
Seven or eight hundred catties of debris such as fur, animal bones, tusks and so on a large skateboard. Guan Xiaoshan pulled a rope on his shoulder like a slim man, shouted twice, and then dragged the skateboard and ran on the snow. The little crocodile and the little white tiger guarded on both sides. The red spirit giggling, sometimes reaching out to help drag a fiber rope, sometimes jumping on the skateboard, lying comfortably in the fur pile and allowing the skateboard to run.
Before Zhang Ziguan urged him, Guan Xiaoshan already had the intention to leave.
The edge of the evil land on the east bank of the Heishui River has been combed back and forth several times, and it is difficult to find the spiritual crystals. The group of aquatic monsters in the Heishui River have also been tossed away. Fishing is becoming more and more difficult, and more and more things have been obtained. The evil land on the east bank of the Heishui River has become worse than chicken ribs. There is nothing but beneficial cultivation, and there are There are too many evil places for cultivation, so this place has been abandoned without pity.
Guan Xiaoshan is ready to fight elsewhere. Before that, he needs to go back to Kunlun City to sell the accumulated fur, animal bones and a set of armor blades. The after-sales crystals are combined with the 113 red crystals accumulated during this period. It is estimated that it can be exchanged for 20 or 30 black crystals, which is enough to practice for a month.
Guan Xiaoshan expects Zhang Ziguan to turn directly in the southeast. In order to avoid meeting the two sides, he chose another farther return route - first follow the edge of the evil land to the east, and turn south to Kunlun City when he reaches the northern part of the West Sea. Although it has gone a lot in this way, it is much safer. In case of danger that can't be dealt with, you can escape back and forth on both sides of the evil land.
It turned out that his choice was correct. The two beasts followed the evil land for five days in a row, and were only occasionally harassed by low-level evil spirits, and the number was small, and the real danger did not happen once.
On the sixth day, the terrain ahead changed from a plain with grasslands and water to a continuous and rolling mountain area. The mountain area is in a primitive state, either a thorny jungle, or a barren grass more than one person high, or simply a messy stone slope with no grass left, a big slide for loading goods. The board was entangled in thorns for a while, and stuck by raised stones for a while. When it encounters too rugged, it needs to be carried by Guan Xiaoshan and Chi Lingxin together; the journey has become troublesome.
Chi Lingxin has not yet formed the concept of wealth, and it is a little impatient when encountering difficulties. Several times it wants to throw the big skateboard together with the things above into the valley. Guan Xiaoshan endured the unsmooth journey while persuading Chi Lingxin. Just put up with it and get out of the mountain area. Don't underestimate these rags. If you get it in Kunlun City, it will be a spiritual crystal. You can't lose it.
The mountainous area is very large, not to say that they can go out. Two days later, they not only did not see any signs of coming out of the mountain, but the terrain in front of them became higher and higher, as if they had just entered the deep hinterland. Guan Xiaoshan estimated that this should be Tianshan, the largest mountain in northern Kunlun Prefecture recorded in the Overview of Spiritual Geography, so he thought of a shortcut. Chi Lingxin, you can unlock the Feng Lingshu and fly to the air to have a look. If this is Liantian Mountain, there will be a big river that goes straight to the West Sea - Liantian River. If we find Liantian River, we will take a raft from the waterway.
Chi Lingxin did what he said and flew out for half a day to get the result. As Guan Xiaoshan guessed, this is Liantian Mountain, and the Liantian River, which flows from the northwest to the southeast, is just a few beams away. Therefore, the two beasts rushed to the Liantian River, cut the wooden raft overnight, and went down the waterway instead.
The house leaks in the rain, and the waterway is not smooth.
The next morning, the team got on the raft. As soon as they traveled more than ten miles downstream, they encountered a large group of iron-toothed silver carp. This group of iron-toothed silver carp rolled over from the water like dark clouds and gnawed the raft in an instant.
At the beginning of the raft, Guan Xiaoshan was a little vigilant and worried that he would suddenly encounter aquatic creatures, so he kept driving on the shore. This vigilance worked. As soon as the iron-toothed silver carp appeared, he found that something was wrong and immediately began to rush the goods to the shore. In the end, although the raft was destroyed, it did not suffer other losses.
"Ha ha - I just realized today that the iron-toothed silver carp in the West Sea ran from Lian Tianhe, and the source of Lian Tianhe seemed to be an evil place. Hey - Chi Lingxin, Xihai Haixin Mountain is your territory. How can you tolerate these little things to be rampant! When we have time, we need to go back to clean up..."
Chi Ling's heart was furious, and it was about to explode. Guan Xiaoshan had to suppress his bad mood and reluctantly talk and laugh to distract her attention.
The river valley is narrow and more tortuous. In desperation, Guan Xiaoshan decided not to use a big skateboard to transport goods, but to transport goods with the power of humans and animals. The red spirit heart, the little crocodile and the little white tiger were all mobilized. Chi Lingxin carried two large bundles of fur in both hands and shared nearly 300 catties; the little crocodile carried a large bundle of animal bones, about 100 catties; the little white tiger framed two small bundles of tusks, almost 100 catties, and the rest were tied by Guan Xiaoshan. He tied a set of armor on his back and carried a bundle of 100 catties in each hand.
Guan Xiaoshan was busy distributing the burden in the valley. He didn't notice that there were three people flying over his head, and they were all his old acquaintances--
The first person rode the hemp-backed vulture, who was one of the top three of the Pre-God Research Institute and often cares about the library. The middle person rode the red-crowned crane, but the young mage named "Qingyun" who had seen and ordered Yin's arrow to assassinate Dekang in the square; finally A man rode a Moyu eagle, holding a long gun and wearing armor. He was Meng Feixu, an adventurer who escaped from the battle some time ago.
The three people flew over along the river valley. Obviously, they found Guan Xiaoshan, but the first Bai Mang's eyes only stared at the red spirit heart, and said strangely, "Oh, what a clever little girl! It's so adorable. Brother Feixu - Look at this girl's dress, like someone from your Zhenwu Research Institute. What's her name? Ha ha - I have decided to hire her as my god general in the future!"
Meng Fei stared at Guan Xiaoshan with a gloom and replied disproportionately, "Brother Bai - this girl is not from the Zhenwu Research Institute, but a person around the biographer. It is probably his imprisonment. I'm afraid no one will get Brother Bai's kindness..."
"Around the biographer?" Bai Mang frowned and then said anly, "How about that? I think this girl is still a virgin. She can't help it. Just take it!"
Meng Feixu curled his lips on Bai Mang's back and said, "The biographer is Miss Yun's lifesaver. Brother Bai is really sure to take it?"
Bai Mang said disdainfully, "What about Miss Yun's lifesaver? Isn't it Miss Yun herself? What are you afraid of him!"
Qingyun's eyes flashed in the middle, and he cheered loudly and said, "Brother Bai is heroic, I admire it! To be honest, such a cute little girl is only matched by the white brother who is in the top three of the pre-god mage. How dares Guan Xiaoshan He De to be a forbidden man!"
Bai Mang laughed when he heard the words and was very proud. Meng Feixu frowned and said, "Qingyun! Your father is the god general of the elder, and your Mu family and the Yun family share weal and woe; biographers have some relatives with you..."
It turned out that this "Qingyun" surname was Mu, the son of Mushan, the leader of Kunlun City. Mushan is the god of Yun Wuya, and the Mu family is a vassal of the Yun family. As the life-saving benefactor of the Mu family, Guan Xiaoshan is indeed related to the Mu family. Meng Feixu regarded himself as the future god general, and by the way, Guan Xiaoshan and the Mu family as their own people in the future, so he kindly reminded Mu Qingyun to distinguish between inside and outside.
Bai Mang heard the hidden meaning in his words, stopped the flying horse, turned around and said with a smile, "Oh - Brother Feixu is cheerful, and what he said is extremely; Guan Xiaoshan and the Mu family do have some relatives. In this case, why did Qingyun Xiandi encourage me to compete with Guan Xiaoshan?
Mu and Meng also stopped flying. Mu Qingyun turned his head and looked down and said disdainfully, "Dear? Does he deserve to be Guan Xiaoshan? Humph--" He snorted contemptuously. He turned to the two surprised companions and said, "Brother Feixu, Brother Bai thinks it is so exemptible. You have a confidential mission against Guan Xiaoshan. How can you think so? If Guan Xiaoshan is related to the Mu family, how can you explain your task?
Meng Fei frowned and guessed that Mu Shan had told his son about monitoring Guan Xiaoshan. He looked blankly and said vaguely, "This matter is a little strange. In the past, I guessed that it might be an investigation before the re-use of biographers or another form of protection. Why - isn't it?"
"Of course not!"
Mu Qingyun answered affirmatively, hinting without any covert: "You two don't know that the identity of Miss Yun's life-saving benefactor was falsely recognized by Guan Xiaoshan. Only because there was a very important thing that needed to be verified by him, Miss Yun temporarily endured it with him. I understand - as long as it doesn't hurt Guan Xiaoshan's life and misses Miss Yun's secret verification, Miss Yun will not care how you treat Guan Xiaoshan.
"Is this true?!" Meng Feixu's eyes lit up. He was worried about seeing Guan Xiaoshan when he slipped away alone when he encountered the fire dragon and scorpion. Hearing Mu Qingyun's words, he was refreshed, and his worries suddenly disappeared.
Mu Qingyun nodded resolutely.
Bai Mang's last trace of scruples disappeared, and his eyebrows danced and said, "What are you waiting for? You two, let me take the little girl as a protective general--" he said, manipulating the flying horse to sweep down first.
In the sound of flying horses, the three of them fell on the boulder on the river valley, which could stop the two beasts from moving forward.
Suddenly seeing someone flying down from the sky, Guan Xiaoshan was originally happy, because it meant safety; when he recognized the faces of the three, he was a little tired; Bai Mang was fine, the relationship between the two was not salty and there was no grudge; Meng Feixu and Mu Qingyun were his hateful people, among whom Mu Qingyun was especially, although he had never dealt with each other, Mu Qingyun was once the shadow of his heart, and because of the enmity with Yin Jian, he had been deeply wary of Mu Qingyun for a long time.
He will not show it on his face. Seeing the three people fall into shape, he smiled and said, "Huh! What a coincidence. How did Master Bai Mang and Meng Fei Xuzhen come here?
Meng Feixu casually answered, "A month ago, Miss Yun led the army of Linchen Pavilion out of Kunlun in the north, divided into three ways to suppress the demons on the border, and all the way into Liantian Mountain; we followed Miss Yun here, and now we were ordered to search for the traces of demons..." Speaking of this, he glanced at Guan Xiaoshan and said with a smile, "Biographers are very good. They can escape under the tail hook of the dragon and scorpion; why don't Brother Ziguan see him? Is it that he is intercepting the fire dragon and scorpion for the biographer?
"Brother Ziguan is very good! He took a shortcut back to Kunlun City. Guan Xiaoshan didn't expect Meng Feixu to be so brazen that he would take the initiative to mention this matter carelessly. He didn't want to pay attention to these people. He responded indifferently and turned to Mu Qingyun and pretended not to ask, "This mage is relatively shy. I don't know what to call him?"
Mu Qingyun stared at him fiercely and said coldly, "I'm Mu Qingyun, the son of the Mu family and the four flower mage!"
"The son of the wooden family? The son of Commander Mu!"
Guan Xiaoshan Huo Ran realized that he finally knew why Yin Jian listened to Mu Qingyun's words, because the leader's government has no chance to become the best way out for the real martial artist. If he loves Wu and Wu, Mr. Mu will naturally be sought after by the real warriors. It makes him wonder why Mu Qingyun is so resentful and dissatisfied. Has the cause of Yin Jian's death been leaked?
In doubt, Guan Xiaoshan turned to Bai Mang. There was no grudge between the two, and it was easier to talk. Unexpectedly, Bai Mang's appearance is easy-going, but in fact he is extremely proud. He has never looked at Guan Xiaoshan, a biographer. After falling down, his eyes have been staring at the red spirit. At this time, he is confidently and laughing, "You little girl, you are cute. Is it called Chi Lingxin? Ha ha - life is beautiful, the name is also beautiful, and people are as good as their names are, very good..."
Chi Lingxin had been stared impatiently for a long time. Hearing this, he was even more angry and shouted, "Wow! How dare you call me auntie! Looking for death--"
In the roar, she knocked down the two bundles of goods in her hand and picked up a long gun to come up to fight Bai Mang. Guan Xiaoshan's attention just turned around. He knew the nature of Chi Lingxin. As soon as he saw something wrong, he immediately reached out and grabbed it and persuaded, "courtesy! Courtesy - Be polite to people! Master Bai Mang is joking with you..."
What did Chi Lingxin shout on the first day? Bai Mang was really shocked. After a while, he smiled more happily and praised repeatedly, "What a unruly little girl! Ha ha - I like this - you can be my bodyguard in the future, no matter what your level!"
"To be your body protector?" Guan Xiaoshan pressed the Chi Lingxin with both hands, turned his head to look at Bai Mang, and asked doubtfully, "Master Bai Mang - am I right?"
Bai Mang curled his lips contemptuously and sneered, "This little girl is very angry with me. I'm going to hire her as a bodyguard. Whether you hear it wrong or right, it has nothing to do with it.
Guan Xiaoshan's eyes were cold and he said coldly, "I'm a biographer with a famous emblem."
"Oh - is the identity of a famous emblem great?"
Mu Qingyun smiled and said disdainfully, "Brother Bai and Brother Feixu also have a famous emblem; after the next day of life comes, I will enter the Pre-God Research Institute, and I will also have a famous emblem. Oh - our badge identity is earned by strength.
