Chapter 13

"Zhao Nikjing" is all-encompassing. In addition to archery, there are illusions, weapon refining, beast control, hidden cultivation, and even the method of controlling air flight, but that method was not special at the beginning, and it could even be called the speed of a turtle. , Only after the Nascent Soul stage did he see an advantage, so he asked Shang Moyang to teach him the technique of shrinking the land.

He didn't know that the escape method in the early stage of "Zhao Ri Jing" was very rubbish, but it was actually to increase the number of double cultivation times of the host, thereby increasing the cultivation level.Moreover, if the spell of controlling air flight is too advanced, it is inevitable that the flight will be too far away. At that time, the spiritual energy will be exhausted, and the body will be unbearably hungry and thirsty.

Lan Lieyun was worried that someone would find out his identity, so he stopped and walked, so it was not the time when his spiritual energy was exhausted.When he returned to Xiaoyao City this time, he didn't plan to stay for too long, he only left a letter to Shang Moyang, saying that he had already formed the alchemy and went out to practice again.

He is not suitable for marriage now, he must try to get his body back and talk about it later.Otherwise, his identity would be exposed, and he would have no face to appear in front of Mo Yang in the future.

As soon as he arrived at the Hall of Picking Stars, he went straight to the side hall.Lingji, who was busy with official duties in the side hall, saw him, and was both surprised and happy: "City Master, you are finally back! A lot of things have happened recently, and it is really difficult for my subordinates to make decisions..."

Lan Lieyun knew that he had been away for more than a year and only came back once, so he comforted his subordinates and dealt with several important matters.

At this time, Lingji also found that he had formed the golden core, and she was relieved: "Some time ago, Grandmaster Shang came to visit, and after reading the letter from the city lord, he burned the letter. Let's go, the city lord will not leave for the time being when he comes back this time, right?"

Lan Liyun paused for a moment: "It's okay, he is worried that I will encounter danger when I go out, not angry. After I come back this time, I will go out again, and I will stay in the city forever."

"But the city lord is not yet married, is it inappropriate to go out and travel now?"

"What's the big deal? Now that I've formed an alchemy, my lifespan has greatly increased. These are just trivial things. If Grandmaster Shang comes, just give me a few words of comfort for him, and I'll leave in a few days."

Although Lingji disagreed, she couldn't persuade him, and said: "A few days later, an envoy from the Xieyue Kingdom will come to fight with the foundation-building disciples of Xiaoyao City. Do you want the city master to participate?"

"Appointment? Why haven't you heard of this before?"

"The envoys of the oblique moon kingdom brought the spirit treasure golden wind and jade dew plate bestowed by the emperor back then, and gambled with Xiaoyao City. They won three out of five games. If they win, they will enter our spirit beast garden for a month."

The Spiritual Beast Garden in Xiaoyao City is not far from the Star Picking Hall. Apart from raising very common spirit beasts, there is only one entrance to the secret realm of the foundation-building period. Those who have just entered the foundation-building period can go in and experience it. There is nothing special about it. I don't know how many times I went in.

He also thought about traveling with Shang Moyang, but it's a pity that the realm of the two is too far apart.In the past, Shang Moyang was too far away from him, but now he is too far away from Shang Moyang.Of course, they are all golden cores now, so there is no need to go in.

Lan Lieyun pondered and said: "The jade dew plate is originally a treasure. I took out the jade dew plate for a few people to enter a foundation-building secret realm. Is there any problem?"

"The subordinates sent people to sneak into the oblique moon country, and there is nothing unusual."

"Where are the disciples from the oblique moon country going to battle? What cultivation level are they?"

"Three foundation-building stages have eight floors, and two foundation-building stages have nine floors. The people in this city are all disciples of the aristocratic clans, and their cultivation levels are comparable, but they all have rich experience in martial arts. The city lord can rest assured. If the city lord has something to do, it's okay not to participate The oblique moon is just a small country, so there is no need to give them face." Lingji was full of confidence.

Lan Lieyun was still worried: "Have they entered Happy City? I'll go and see tonight."

"Why does the city lord go in person? I'll let a few experts go and find out the news."

Lan Lieyun knew that although Lingji was romantic and sentimental, she would never delay in doing business, so she nodded and asked Lingji not to pass on the news of her return for the time being, so as not to startle the snake.Fortunately, when he came back, he was eager and directly used the method of shrinking the ground, and no one else saw him outside the Hall of Picking Stars.

He went to fetch his saber, stroked it for a long time, recalling the experience of this trip, it was like a dream.It was as if he had never left the Palace of Reaching Stars at all, nor had he become a bisexual body, but the relationship with Shang Moyang in every scene was so clear.

He rubbed ink and wrote a letter, thinking of Lingji's mention of the last time Shang Moyang destroyed the letter in anger, he knew that Shang Moyang's patience was not enough, so he wrote many sweet and lingering words brazenly, expressing his unwavering love, Let him wait.After writing the letter, seal it up and meditate in the side hall to rest.

Two days later, Lingji came to report in a hurry, with a solemn expression on his face: "The city lord expected it well, among the attendants brought by the envoy of the oblique moon kingdom, Ko Ning, one seemed to be a demon cultivator, whose cultivation was hidden, so he couldn't tell .”

Lan Lieyun said: "The demon cultivator is cunning and wise. It seems that there is a secret hidden in the secret realm that our four great families don't know. If I can still sit in Xiaoyao City, it doesn't matter if I lose to them, and follow them secretly Once you enter the secret realm, you will know the clues. Now the two elders are getting old, and I can't stay in Xiaoyao City, so I can't lose this battle."

Lingji also followed Lan Lieyun to do several earth-shattering events back then, but now seeing the city lord's mysteriousness and refusing to reveal her whereabouts, she sighed in her heart and had to answer yes.

Why didn't Lan Lieyun understand his thoughts, and said with a smile: "The aura in Dongji Continent is thin, and there are not enough opportunities. Has the Taoist priest ever thought of going to Penglai Continent to experience it?"

Lingji shook her head and smiled bitterly: "The ones who will stay in Dongjizhou are either hard to leave their homeland, or they are obsessed with the word money and power. Now that they are old, how can they have any ambitions?"

"The Taoist priest is still young, don't say anything depressing." Lan Lieyun persuaded him.In the past, Lingji was abandoned by the person she loved, and he was entangled with it, and the person refused to see each other no matter what, until he died of illness at home.Only then did Lingji understand that the other party had already been seriously ill, and she didn't want to burden him.

Perhaps he was anxious to die, after which he indulged in sensuality.Later, he was forced by his family to become a monk and become a Taoist priest. He still did not change his temper and was idle every day. If Lan Lieyun hadn't forced him to work in Zhaixing Palace, he might still be in Goulan Restaurant now.

Lingji shook her head and smiled wryly, but remained silent.

Seeing his despondent look, Lan Lieyun couldn't help but asked, "Have you ever thought that Mr. Lin may have faked his death, but he actually ran away from home and went to Penglaizhou to practice? When Mr. Lin went to the funeral, his parents I haven't seen any sadness..."

"Impossible! Xiao Lin won't lie to me!"

"Actually, if you want to know the truth, it's not impossible..."

"Stop talking! I will never move his grave!" Lingji yelled, with pain on her face and sweat dripping down her face.

As soon as Lan Lieyun heard it, he knew that Lingji had already understood it.Lingji and Lin Min are a few years older than him, and they have a close relationship.Unexpectedly, Lin Min "died" later, and Lingji drank heavily all day long.Although Lan Lieyun could guess that Lin Min might not be dead, but at that time he and Lingji were no more than acquaintances, so it's not good to talk about it. What's more, since Lin Min didn't intend to, even if Lingji chased him to the end of the world, there would be another What's the use.

When Lan Lieyun proposed marriage to Shang Moyang, he was very worried whether he would repeat Lingji's mistakes back then.Fortunately for him, not only did Shang Moyang not escape, but he also agreed.

No one in the world can compare to a lover as gentle and considerate as Mo Yang.Grateful, Lan Lieyun was even more kind to Shang Moyang, wishing to send all the treasures in the world to him.

He and Shang Moyang were childhood sweethearts, and it was not easy to provoke Lingji, a lonely family, so he never mentioned Lin Min in front of Lingji.Later, seeing Lingji wandering around the wine shop, she was at ease, so she thought that having fun was Lingji's interest.But this time when he came back from Penglai Island, Lan Lieyun was worried about Shang Moyang's illness, and when he saw Lingji, he couldn't help but think of the past.

The corner of Lan Lieyun's mouth curled up: "To prove that a person is alive, it may not be necessary to open the coffin. You can travel to other places, and maybe you will hear about him. If you just wait, one day Mr. Lin will come back and see you With the vicissitudes of life, would you be grateful for his decision to feign death that day?"

"Lan Lianyun! I respect you as the city lord, you..."

"Okay!" Lan Lieyun said in a deep voice, "If you are still a man, if this matter is over, follow me to Penglai. You don't have to worry about the matter of Xiaoyao City!"

Lingji was stunned for a while, and finally sighed.He didn't want to go to Penglai, but he was actually worried that he would meet Lin Min in Penglai, which would inevitably embarrass Lin Min, but after hearing what Lan Lieyun said, he felt that it might not be Lin Min who was embarrassed, but probably his humble self.

Because they were worried that the mission of the oblique moon kingdom would be behind the scenes and caught them off guard, Lan Lieyun came up with an idea and asked Lingji to change the martial arts rules. First, all the competitions were held in the school martial arts field. Those who are too far away cannot enter.The second is a competition every day, divided into five days.Sure enough, it was strongly protested by the Oblique Moon Kingdom.

The moon dew plate is a natural treasure, if the plate is placed on a high place on a full moon day, the essence of the moon can be turned into dew, and it is an important material for refining foundation building pills.It is rumored that supplemented with cultivation methods, it can be drunk directly, and the cultivation base can be greatly improved. Unfortunately, this cultivation method has been lost, otherwise the value of the moon dew plate would be more expensive.

The two sides had been negotiating for many days, and Lan Lieyun had been practicing in the side hall.He planned to cancel the contest if the time came and he wanted to leave, and the spirit beast garden would be closed, and no one was allowed to enter, until he came back from Penglai Island next time.As a result, the person next to Ko Ning, the envoy of the Oblique Moon Kingdom, who was suspected of being a demon cultivator, agreed.

Lan Lieyun felt even more suspicious, and originally wanted to refuse, but the heads of the three families all interceded, and there were too many disciples who stayed in the Qi training period of Dzogchen.Although he is the head of the Lan family, there is also a gray-haired cousin who is in the Qi training period who comes to ask for a fight. He is both soft and hard, asking him whether he will leave the family after he has obtained the golden core, so he has no choice but to agree.

The two elders who had formed alchemy were still retreating, so Lan Lieyun used illusion to pretend to be the elder Pei Suwen, and went with Lingji.Lingji's secular surname is Pei, and he is the descendant of Pei Suwen. He appeared with Lingji, and no one else became suspicious.

However, Pei Suwen and Fan Wei were both old when they formed alchemy, and they were not good at competing in cultivation and mana, but they were not good at fighting for life and death.
