Chapter 51
Xie Lin thought, follow up to see the situation first, and talk about the rest at that time, the right is for experience, but seeing Yun Nianchen's appearance of something wrong and impatient, it may be difficult to make the trip.
That's not very good, after all, it is considered to be favored by Lord Yaoguang. Since it is his wish, Xie Lin still wants to help within the scope of his ability.
Of course, he never dared to move Xie Ruyi out, so he thought of a high-sounding reason: "I'm... I'm a little curious about the enchantment, and I want to learn from you."
Yun Nianchen stared at him.
Xie Lin looked back.
His wrist was still hurting, he unconsciously touched the wound, thinking about how Yun Nianchen would refuse.
Unexpectedly, Yun Nianchen lowered his eyes and agreed: "Follow if you want to."
Xie Lin was slightly surprised.
Yun Nianchen looked at the waterfall for the last time, and left the place without sadness or joy in his eyes.
Without Xie Lin, Xie Lin had no choice but to dig out the standard long sword distributed by Xianmen, Yu Jian followed - thank you Yaoguang Jun for lending his mana, otherwise he would not be able to do such a simple thing as "follow Yun Nianchen" arrive.
Yun Nianchen landed in front of today's barrier exit, stood there for a while, and waited until he felt the approach of the little disciple behind him, then opened the barrier and flew out.
This exit can exist for half a minute, enough for Xie Lin to fly out.
Because it was about "finding the town", Xie Lin thought that Yun Nianchen would leave the fairy gate directly, but he didn't expect that he chased him out and saw that Yun Nianchen was going in the direction of Beichen Peak.
Huh?
He hesitated for a second between "catch up" and "go back to find Youxi and the others".
It was very difficult for Yun Nianchen to follow him. If he fell behind, Xie Lin was afraid that he would never find anyone again.
Although he really wanted to find someone to ask about what happened before, he still flew to Beichen Peak without hesitation.
As for the three—
He touched the bracelet, called out Tie Tie, took out a pen and paper and wrote a few questions, put it in a wooden tube, and hung it around Tie Tie's neck.
"Go," he patted Tiger's head, "If Abi and the others are in the fairy gate, give them this letter for me; if not, come back to me."
Zhu Chengbi likes Tie Tie the most, and she is the most active of the three in "stroking cats", and she is relatively more familiar with Tie Tie.
After listening to Xie Lin's instructions, Tie Tie made a "wow" and flew away in the opposite direction.
In the past, Beichen Peak did not allow disciples to go in and out casually. With Yun Nianchen's intimidating power, no one dared to come here. Xie Lin had been in Xianmen for five years, and this was the first time he went up the mountain, so he was a little nervous.
But here is much more peaceful than he imagined, the road is very quiet, and even the stone steps are covered with green moss, as if there is no one in the mountains, no one lives at all.
It's kind of weird.
Anyway, there should be two handyman disciples in the mountain, right?I don't know where I went right now.
Xie Lin didn't meet anyone along the way, and didn't encounter any barriers, so he flew directly to the top of the mountain.
It fell to the ground and shook first.
It was so cold, and there were even drops of water on the surrounding leaves, like the morning frost that had melted away.
He looked back at the way he came from, and felt that the mountain didn't seem to be high enough to turn the temperature from summer to winter, and he felt strange.
Where Yun Nianchen usually lives, why is the environment so harsh.
There is not even a decent house in front of it, only a dilapidated cave, where Yun Nianchen's breath stays.
There was no one around, Xie Lin thought about it and tried to walk over.
He walked very carefully - this is the case in the world of cultivating immortals. A seemingly peaceful place may not be without organ formations, and every step must be kept in mind.However, until Xie Lin reached the entrance of the cave, he didn't meet any obstacles. It seemed that the owner of the cave had no intention of stopping him.
My eyes flickered for a while.
"In the future, you should live here. There are countless large and small springs in the fairy gate, but there is only this one in the cold pool... It is convenient to come and see you... No, what is your expression? One person occupies a mountain, this is the palm of the mountain The treatment, you have to thank Master well later."
"Did you hear that? Kid, you should answer...I've said so much, why don't you just talk to me?"
The screen flickered.
Xie Lin was stunned, is there a cold pool here?
No wonder it's so cold in here.
This is probably one of Yaoguang-jun's memories. Xie Lin still has the mana that belonged to that senior. When he revisited the old place, he didn't think it was too strange to see these. When the picture faded away, he went straight into the cave.
The cave is not as dilapidated as it looks from the outside, at least the stone walls are very smooth, and it looks like it has been repaired with care, but the further you go in, the colder you feel.The cultivator has magical powers to protect the body, so it shouldn't be too much to bear, but I don't know whether Xie Lin's realm is not enough or it's too cold here. When he saw the frost condensed on the ground and the stone wall, he finally couldn't help but find a robe and put it on. up.
There are many forks in the cave, but fortunately Yun Nianchen's aura is obvious, so Xie Lin found him quickly.
He stood in one of the piled-up holes, watching silently.
Xie Lin waited on the spot for a while, but didn't see him move. He thought he was in a daze, so he couldn't help asking: "Little uncle, what are you doing?"
"Chunfeng Layman has a strange thing called "Youtan Stone".This object is cold in body, can condense spiritual power, and belongs to water, but it is a stone representing "earth", so it is perfect to be used as a town.I asked him for it, but he said that it was given to my senior brother many years ago; I came back to look for it, but here... there is no. "
Layman Chunfeng said that his brother would make him a sword.
But the things that his senior brother gave him, ranging from the spine of an ancient monster to as small as a needle, for a hundred years, a total of 31322 items, without exception, he kept them all carefully, and there was no such thing as the "Youtan Stone" .
I don't remember it. I checked it with my spiritual sense at this time, but it still doesn't exist.
After Yun Nianchen finished speaking, he looked towards Xie Lin: "If you were my senior brother, where would you put such a thing? Or... who would you give it to?"
There was a flash of panic in Xie Lin's eyes, which was captured by Yun Nianchen.
He snorted softly.
Xie Lin was completely guilty, so he calmed down and said: "Senior... I think he wrote a book, and he should have research on weapon refining. May I ask my little uncle, can the "Youtan Stone" be used to refine weapons? "
"How do I know." Yun Nianchen said coldly, "I have no research on refining equipment."
"Uh..." This is very difficult, Xie Lin bit the bullet and said, "Senior wrote in the book, "There is nothing in the world that cannot be forged". Not sure, little uncle... you look for it again? "
A sword cultivator's sword must be fed by his own body, mind and blood. He must start with the material and touch it every day. At least it shows that the brother asked for that stone, and it was indeed not for himself.
Yun Nianchen sneered: "All the things on Yaoguang Peak are here, maybe I gave the stone to someone else."
He walked out as soon as he said that, and he was angry and angry, and mixed with unclear emotions, Xie Lin instinctively pulled him back as soon as he heard it.
Although the children in the orphanage are sensible, they are just children. Xie Lin understands very well that if a child shouts "I will never be with you again" in such a tone, it is most likely not for the purpose of breaking up friendship, but... er , just pantothenic acid.
At this time, it needs the teachers of the orphanage to adjust. After all, the children are thin-skinned and can't hold back their face.
Xie Lin's action of holding him was purely an occupational disease.
But when Yun Nianchen really looked over, Xie Lin realized that he hadn't tried to deal with this situation before, his mind went blank, and he was out of words.
"how?"
"Uh... this..." Xie Lin stuttered and thought about the words, "Or should I look for it again?"
Yun Nianchen ruthlessly refused: "I never do useless work, and the township does not have to be "Youtan Stone". "
"but--"
But for Layman Chunfeng's things, Yun Nianchen will come back to look for them only when he hears that Xie Ruyi took them away, which means he thinks the things will be here.
Whether it is to stay in the fairy gate or give it to Yun Nianchen, Xie Lin doesn't think about it, because so far, all Xie Ruyi's memories that Xie Lin has seen, are as big as Feng Moyuan, as small as "eat this morning." For such trivial matters as "what", there are only two people, "Master" and "Junior Brother".
According to the book, the obsessions, memories, or primordial spirits left by monks will wear out over time, and what can be seen by him, a latecomer after hundreds of years, must be the deepest obsession of Lord Yaoguang.
Xiaoyaozi and Yun Nianchen are two very important people to him.
"But I think this thing should be in the fairy gate. If it's not on Yaoguang Peak, maybe it's on Beichen Peak." Xie Lin thought for a while and said, "Senior, he... er, I mean, I heard that Yaoguang Jun respects the uncle of the previous sect master very much, and also cares about you, the only junior, maybe it’s just finding a leak, not... um, just, what if it’s a misunderstanding?”
Yun Nianchen looked at him for a while.
Nodded for a while: "Okay, since you think it's a misunderstanding, then come and find me."
Xie Lin: "?"
This is outrageous, Yun Nianchen can find something and let out his consciousness to scan it, he can only look through it by himself.
And he is not as familiar with the fairy gate as Yun Nianchen!
But after Yun Nianchen finished speaking, he really stood aside, leaning against the mountain wall and making no sound, as if "you come".
Xie Lin was helpless, glanced at the ice-covered stone wall behind him, and swallowed his words.
Just look for it.
There were too many sundries in the cave, and since Yun Nianchen said no, Xie Lin didn't worry too much about it.He wanted to walk around and see how many places there were to hide things in Beichen Peak, and hoped that the erratic "memories" could give him some hints.
Although there are many forks in this cave, only the previous cave is the largest. The other caves are mostly empty, and the stone walls are not as smooth as the main cave, as if they were cut out by a sword.
The further you went in, the thicker the ice layer in the cave, Xie Lin found a small path, a bit unbearable, took out a thick winter cloak from the bracelet and put it on.
This road goes up all the way, twists and turns, and finally walks out from the other side of the cave.Just as Xie Lin stepped out of the cave, he was blown across the face by the icy wind and snow as if he had stepped out of some kind of seal.
There is still an upward mountain road ahead.
With an inexplicable premonition, Xie Lin walked up.
There are no trees here, and the mountain is covered with white snow. Walking and walking to a flat place, a spring is surrounded by the mountain wall on three sides, and the water is filled with mist. It is beautiful, but it is quite bleak.
The chill in this place almost penetrated into human bones, Xie Lin squatted down to test the water temperature with his fingers, and shrank back from the cold.
This is the cold pool...it really is so cold that the pool lives up to its name.
On the surrounding mountain walls, there are traces of sword cutting. There is a legend in Beichen Peak, saying that "every flower and every grass" in the place where Yun Nianchen practiced has a mysterious meaning. At that time, Xie Lin didn't understand what this meant, but now, When he saw those traces, he felt sharp eyes—it wasn't too ugly, but he felt a sharp air rushing towards his face, and finally realized what "mysterious meaning" is by himself.
Just, how should I put it, if the handymen of Beichen Peak need to clean this place from time to time, it will be quite hard.
But this place doesn't look like it can hide things, so it's time to go back the same way.
That's when the accident happened.
Xie Lin stood up, his whole body swayed suddenly, then his legs gave way, and he fell into the pool.
"Hey, master, what should we do? Where do you think it will not arouse his suspicion for such a big stone?"
"Ah? Why do you want to avoid him? Uh...haha...well, I accidentally offended the kid a while ago, and recently he doesn't like to talk to me, so I definitely won't accept anything I give him."
"What the hell, I didn't do it on purpose! I don't want to make him angry, and he wants to give me a chance! The kid has such a temper!"
"Oh, it's this "Silent Pool Stone". I specially asked Chunfeng to get it back... It can condense spiritual power, which is suitable for his physique.You also know that he is not lacking in cultivation. This kind of thing that is harmful to cultivation for others is perfect for him... I am afraid that he will not accept it if I just take it directly. "
"Eh? That's right! Isn't that the place that he would go to every day and never find out!"
……
·
Yun Nianchen leaned against the mountain wall, closed his eyes and meditated.
In the sea of consciousness, the thing with his own face when he was a child is screaming desperately.
"I said it all, he doesn't care about you at all! Do you really think that thing will be with you? Hahaha..."
"His friends are tens of thousands, even Xiaoxiu like Layman Chunfeng is his friend. In his eyes, there is no one who can't be friends with in this world. He is good to you because he is good to everyone, not because of how much you are." special……"
"Wake up, Yun Nianchen! You are the lone star of the gods, the unlucky thing that restrains your father and mother and hinders your blood relatives! In this world, no one will truly love you—"
"Ouch-"
Hearing a tiger howling through the noise suddenly, Yun Nianchen frowned and opened his eyes suddenly.
The voice was very anxious, and it came from... Hantan?
That was his daily practice place, and Yun Nianchen could find it with his eyes closed. Once he got there, he saw the stupid tiger anxiously circling the cold pool.
It just went up the mountain, Yun Nianchen could feel it, but walking around the pool was...
Yun Nianchen paused.
The next moment, he waved his wide sleeves and fished out a drenched man from the ice water.
·
After the memory was over, Xie Lin woke up, choking on the ice water and coughing a series of times.
Yun Nianchen threw the person on the ground and said condescendingly, "It's amazing, find something to find yourself in the water."
"I...cough, cough, cough," Xie Lin looked up at him, a little emotionally, "I found it!"
Although his lips turned purple from the cold, Xie Lin's eyes were extremely bright.Yun Nianchen was taken aback: "You found it?"
"Well, it's under the water." Xie Lin said, "it's a bit big, I can't lift it up, maybe I need to trouble you to personally—"
Boom!
Before the words were finished, Yun Nianchen had already jumped off the pool.
Xie Lin: "..."
Sure enough, as long as it was about Yao Guangjun, Yun Nianchen's reaction would be great.
He didn't have much time to think, the most urgent thing was to keep warm, and it was too late to run back to the cave, Xie Lin found out the spare firewood in the bracelet with trembling hands, lit a fire with the fire control formula, and then put The wet clothes on his body were taken off one by one, leaving only a thin undershirt.
Sitting by the fire, coupled with the continuous operation of the fire control art in his body, barely kept him from freezing in this harsh environment.
Tie Tie rubbed over from the side.
The tiger has a tempting temperature, so Xie Lin simply let it get closer, leaned forward with his whole body, took out the wooden tube hanging around his neck, and opened the letter to read.
The letter was written by Zhu Chengbi, with beautiful and neat handwriting, telling him what happened after Xie Lin's disappearance in a few strokes, and also attaching what happened in the fairy gate that they inquired about.
In addition to what he saw and heard along the way, as well as the few words revealed by Yun Nianchen, Xie Lin was finally able to piece together this series of events.
It was probably because Yun Nianchen went to Layman Chunfeng to ask for spiritual objects but failed. After leaving the secret realm, he sensed his primordial spirit...or there was something wrong with the inner demon, so he brought the disciples back along the way.On the side of the fairy gate, Fang Mingxiu took advantage of the evil spirit to invade the chaos of the fairy gate, sneaked into the fairy gate, for some reason, he focused on Tian Xinyi, and kidnapped him.
After that, Yun Nianchen went to save people, but...
Xie Lin fell into deep thought.
If he heard correctly, what Yun Nianchen meant seemed to be that Fang Mingxiu had something to do with the invasion of evil spirits.
Indeed, there are no random coincidences in this world, and many things are inextricably linked behind each other.
Fang, Ming, Xiu.
Mr. Yaoguang has almost nothing about him in his memory, except that he is narrow-minded and has hated Xie Lin for many years because of his broken bowl, Xie Lin has no other impressions of him.
After a while, Yun Nianchen came out of the water.Unlike Xie Lin who fell into the water, he didn't touch any water, and his demeanor was very graceful, as if he had never jumped into the water at all.
Xie Lin huddled in the fluff of the sticker, raised his eyes to look at him, and wondered: "Little uncle, didn't you find it?"
"found it."
"Then..." Why are your hands empty?
"I put it away, there is no water to suppress it, take that thing out—"
"Will there be very bad consequences?" Xie Lin still remembered the phrase "can stagnate aura", guessing like this.
Yun Nianchen took another look at him: "At most it will affect you."
Xie Lin: "..."
You know, it's because of his weak mana.
Although Xie Ruyi still had a part of his mana in him, compared with Yun Nianchen, he was nothing compared to Yun Nianchen.
If nothing else, he couldn't stand the wind and snow.
Thinking of this, Xie Lin raised his head and looked at the sky: "Uncle, won't the wind and snow here stop?"
"Ah."
"Formation?"
"Ah."
"I didn't see the arrangement..." Xie Lin looked around, "Is it natural?"
"Ah."
Yun Nianchen sat down not far from him, and reached out to pick up the robe that Xie Lin had left aside.
Only using the fire to bake, it was too slow, Yun Nianchen lowered his eyes, his thoughts were everywhere, and his clothes were all frozen into ice.
The next moment, the ice shattered and fell to the ground with a clatter, but the clothes were dry.
It's amazing.
Xie Lin opened his mouth, but didn't say any words of praise.
He doesn't deserve to praise the only monk in the world who is in the same state.
However, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Yun Nianchen's state was not as dangerous as before. Is it because he found something left by Yao Guangjun?
"I found the 'Youtan Stone', is my uncle leaving the fairy gate? Xie Lin pinched the letter and asked carefully, "Can I go say hello to my fellow students?" "
In the letter, Zhu Chengbi expressed his happiness and reassurance that he was safe and sound on behalf of the trio, but now they listened to the senior brother in charge and stayed in the newly opened large formation in the dormitory area to avoid disaster, and did not dare to run outside casually, let alone go to Beichen run up the peak.
Xie Lin just wanted to meet them before leaving, at least say hello.
"Why do you ask me what I do for this kind of thing?" Yun Nianchen glanced at him.
Because I am afraid that you will run away.
Xie Lin slandered inwardly, but smiled apologetically: "I don't want you to wait for me..."
"You can go now, I still have some things to stay here for the time being."
After Yun Nianchen finished speaking, he threw Xie Lin's clothes back.Xie Lin took it and touched it—good guy, it was drier than the underwear he was wearing to warm himself.
Between freezing to death and embarrassment, Xie Lin tried to choose the latter: "Little uncle, can I ask you to help me with this..."
They were all men, Xie Lin started to take off his underwear without thinking much.His skin is not that white, but in this white environment of ice and snow, it is particularly dazzling.
Yun Nianchen suddenly caught a glimpse of this scene, picked up the dried cloak on the ground, and threw it on his head.Xie Lin poked his head out of the heavy material, feeling a little dissatisfied: "Little uncle, if you don't want to, you can just say it, there's no need to hit me on the head."
Of course, this matter can also be regarded as his preemption.
Xie Lin had no choice but to take the underwear he had just taken off and put it in front of the fire to dry.
"give me."
"Huh?" Xie Lin looked puzzled, isn't he unwilling?
"It's a matter of little effort." Yun Nianchen took his clothes, and within a few seconds he heard the broken ice fall to the ground, and the clothes had returned to dryness, "But it's too indecent to be naked."
Xie Lin: "Oh."
Forget that the ancients were more conservative.
"Then please turn around a little bit, let me change my clothes." Xie Lin dragged the thin inner coat into the cloak, and the whole person changed clothes with difficulty under the wrap of the cloak.
After they were all fully dressed, they put down their cloaks and began to wear other clothes.
"Then I'll go back to the main peak and have a look. I'll come back to look for my junior uncle after I've said goodbye to my acquaintances." Xie Lin saluted Yun Nianchen, "Please wait for me."
……
People are gone.
The flames danced leisurely.
The wind in the mountains was still as cold as ever, and the noisy voice sounded again.
"What are you thinking, Yun Nianchen, I really thought it was your senior brother?"
"Have you ever thought about it, if it's really your senior brother, why didn't your senior brother come to recognize you?"
"He doesn't care about you, you have nothing special at all..."
"Your thoughts are so filthy that he doesn't want to come near—"
Yun Nianchen frowned slightly, then pulled out his backhand to his heart, and grabbed the thing's head.
Five fingers clasped tightly around the neck.
"Shut up," Yun Nianchen said to him with black air in his eyes, "You give me, shut up."
"Tell me to shut up? If I shut up, can I cover up your dirty thoughts, or cover up your idea of using a young disciple as a substitute for a senior brother...ah—"
"He's not a stand-in, he's a senior brother." Yun Nianchen repeated as if talking to himself while pinching him, "He's a senior brother... only senior brothers can freely enter and exit the enchantment of the fairyland illusion, I don't believe him no."
"I don't believe it, Senior Brother is no longer in this world."
