Although the human race and the monster race coexist in this world, hostile to each other, restrain each other, and local friction is constant, but from a macro level, it can barely be regarded as a peaceful world.
At least for the human monks in the upper ranks, this is the situation in the world.
As for some unimportant news, for example, the village was slaughtered by a brutal big monster beside a certain creek, a rare deer monster in a certain ravine was presented to the royal family as a gift to play, and a riot broke out in the monster garden of certain county. The monster clan who rushed out of the garden slaughtered the city...
What does that have to do with the monks who retreat in the mountain gate?
As long as the tide of monsters is not attacking the city, or the big monsters gather and rush to the gate of the mountain, many disciples and elders can naturally turn a blind eye to things outside the window and concentrate on cultivating longevity.
In their eyes, even the change of dynasty is not big news, at most a few sighs, feeling the sufferings of the world, fortunate that they have been able to escape from the world and pursue the road, nothing more.
However, in recent years, there have indeed been several major events in the peaceful spiritual world.
The first is that Elder Xie of Tiangangzong publicly announced his separation from the sect.
Tiangangzong has not announced the reason, but there are rumors among the people that Xie Ziyou is trapped by love. When he left the sect, he brought a pregnant snake demon with him.
This incident caused a great uproar in the cultivation world. Some people were righteous and reprimanded that Xie Ziyou for his misbehavior. There are also people who say sourly that the snake demon is a good at flattery. When he did that, he was fine-tailed and groaned. It had a special flavor. No matter how stupid Elder Xie is, it is clearly a blessing.
No matter how they gossip, after Xie Ziyou and his party left the Tiangang Sect, there was a thick fog, and the mist was far away. All the ridges they passed through were sealed off, and the people who were sent by the Tiangang Sect were blocked.
In the early morning of the next day, the thick fog gradually cleared, and only the grass leaves were green in the mountains, and the morning dew was tender, and it was no longer possible to trace Xie Ziyou and others.
Soon after that, the second thing happened.
Tens of kilometers away from Tiangangzong, the tiger demon on the Tianmo Ridge was killed.
Tianmoling was not originally called Tianmoling, it was changed because of the arrival of the Tiger Demon.
This tiger demon is arrogant and domineering. He claims to be the Tiger Roaring Heavenly Lord. He has a cruel temperament and cannibalism. The villages a few miles down the mountain suffered terribly and had to move villages to seek shelter from the Tiangang Sect.
The Tiangang sect sent someone to remove the demon, but he didn't expect that the tiger demon was very agile. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately hid in the mountains and let the people who went to besiege it.
After doing this several times, the people of Tiangang Sect became irritable.
They couldn't endure the hardships of the villagers, so they reluctantly sacrificed their cultivation time and came to catch the demon. They wanted to earn a reputation for the sect and help them open up the mountains in the future.
Who knows, it is so troublesome to wipe out a mere tiger demon?
After rushing to the air again, the monster catching team angrily picked up the pick.
Quit it!
With this skill, isn't it good to run the profound energy for several weeks?
Is it because the spiritual feast on the mountain is not delicious, or the landscape is not charming. As cultivators, they can suffer this hardship?
Anyway, it doesn't interfere with the Tiangang Sect. As long as it doesn't invade the Tiangang Sect boundary, whoever this tiger demon loves to suppress will go, they Tiangang won't serve it!
Tiangangzong withdrew people nonchalantly.
At the same time, the suffocated monk set up an open sect enchantment to isolate the villagers who had migrated, saying that they were embarrassed and would destroy the feng shui of the mountain gate.
The villagers pleaded hard outside the barrier, knocked their heads like garlic, and cried through the sky-but they couldn't move the monks at all.
To no avail, the poor villagers had to help each other, staggering and leaving.
——It didn’t take long for the Tiger Demon to be wiped out.
Tiangangzong: "???"
It was not regarded as a major event, but now that it has been compared by others, the monks of the Tiangang Sect are so angry that they feel that they have lost face.
They sent people again, preparing to chase the villagers back, showing their hearts, and at the same time, they went to Tianmaling with these people to find out.
They could not find the villagers.
...And he couldn't even find Heavenly Devil Ridge.
The villagers and the mountain head disappeared out of thin air, and the sky light across the mountain had a wonderful change. The monks walked inside, and the roadside ancient trees were towering and swaying. Looking ahead, the endless forest is turbulent. Rocks and mountain views seemed to be carved out of the same mold, so that they went around for several days, obviously walking straight along the mountain road, but inexplicably returned to the original place.
This matter was too mysterious. After discussing the matter, the monks of the Tiangang Sect suspected that an unknown secret was born, so they sent disciples with advanced inner cultivation level to inquire.
But the disciples came batch after batch, and in the end they even invited a few elders out of the mountain, and all they brought back were the same conclusion-that they could not feel a clear wave of profound energy.
Not only was there no distinct profound energy fluctuations, they also felt that the concentration of profound energy in the mountains continued to decrease, as if overnight, all the profound energy had changed the direction of its flow, scattered in all directions, leaving a huge area in the center. Hollow.
It is puzzling.
At first, the Tiangang Sect did not believe in evil, and sent disciples to investigate every few months. However, after returning with no success, the investigation time was gradually extended to once in March, once every six months, and once in the last year...
The probing finally stopped after ten years.
The name Tianmoling has also faded in the world, and few people know it. Many years ago, there was a mountain outside the sect and there was a tiger demon on the mountain.
...
For a long-lived repairer, ten years is just a flick of a finger.
But for the folks, ten years is enough for a child who learns to speak a language to grow into a vigorous young man. The Tiangang Sect reopens the mountain gate and welcomes a new batch of candidate disciples. The clothes are as bright and beautiful as ever. Shui Ling, delicate eyebrows, fresh clothes and angry horses, his eyes seemed to flash when he looked at the towering mountain tops.
Young girls of the right age lined up to wait for the test results.
Not long after, a disciple in Tsing Yi walked out of the mountain gate, holding a golden scroll in his hand, coughing lightly, and slowly reciting the name on it.
As the names were read out one by one, some people continued to rush into the sect with cheers, and some went down in despair and returned in defeat.
Wu He is one of the losers.
He waited for a long time, unable to hear his name, so he lowered his head in annoyance and grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly.
Although his body was made of brocade cloth, the color was washed away, and there were several holes in it. The original golden fabric could not be found, so he could only cut a few pieces of coarse cloth and fill it in, which made the boy look a little nondescript.
When mixed among a group of glorious peers, this sense of incompatibility becomes more and more prominent, just like a little native chicken who has strayed into the group of cranes.
Along the way, Wu He did receive countless eyes and ridicule.
He can only grit his teeth and endure bitterly.
Falling in the family, this is the only clothes he can barely handle, and joining the Tiangang Sect is also the only opportunity for the boy to save himself. Now that he can't enter the sect, from now on, he may only... wandering alone.
Thinking of the possible miserable life in the future, Wu He looked pale and clasped his arms helplessly.
He did not guard his home, and walked staggering along the mountain road, not knowing how long he was going or where he was going.
…If you encounter a cliff, just jump down, and it’s a hundred.
But when he really met Shanya, Wu He hesitated again.
No, it doesn't work.
I'm still young, I don't want to die!
A cold wind blew across his cheeks like a knife, the young man slumped on the top of the mountain, looking at the bottomless cliff, distraught and couldn't help crying loudly.
"Hey!"
A suspicious call suddenly floated behind him, and then footsteps approached, standing beside Wu He.
The person came puzzled and said: "Go, isn't it home now, why are you crying?"
Wu He was immersed in pain, just howling and crying, turning a deaf ear to the words of those around him.
The man waited patiently for a while, somewhat helpless.
"That, sorry." He considered his tone and tried to say in a gentle tone, "If you want to cry, can you get away a little bit and don't get in the middle of the road?"
In the middle of the road?
Wu He was sulking in his chest, crying, turning his head suddenly, and rolling his eyes at the visitor.
He stood on the edge of the cliff, and one step forward was the cliff of ten thousand feet. Where is the way?
The visitor squatted down beside him and sighed.
"I understand, you are not from Taoyuan, you want to commit suicide, right?"
"...I didn't want to commit suicide!"
This sentence was anxiously shouted, Wu He was choked with saliva, coughing violently while covering his mouth, and still staring at the incoming person with his eyes widened fiercely.
He was a very handsome young man with clear features and clear eyes. His long hair was neatly **** behind him, gently swaying in the wind, emitting a sharp light like a diamond.
"I didn't want to commit suicide, why are you crying here?" He smiled and said again, "Aren't you... there is nowhere to go?"
Wu He stared at him fiercely.
——Can this person speak, just expose others' scars?
He just coughed and didn't speak, but the more turbulent water in his eyes exposed everything.
The visitor looked at Wu He with a trance, as if recalling something a long time ago, he sighed in a daze and shook his head.
He stepped forward and pulled Wu He's sleeve.
"Let's go, I will take you to Taoyuan. If you like it, it will be your home in the future, and I will be your referral... Well, although lobbying, Taoyuan is not yet ready to expand, but I will tell him After discussing and discussing, it is no problem to ask for a few more places."
In his ears was the young man's long whispering whisper. Wu He was stunned for a while, before he had time to react, suddenly a strong force drew him down the cliff, the whirlwind suddenly rose, and the two suddenly vacated!
That boy actually dragged him off the cliff!
"Fuck, you are crazy!"
Wu He struggled desperately, unable to take advantage of the air. He opened his mouth and the violent long wind poured into his throat, cutting the soft throat painfully.
But he braced the pain in his throat and yelled frantically: "If you want to die, die by yourself, don't pull me, I don't want to die!"
The boy looked at him in confusion and made a mouth shape.
"what did you say?"
Wu He's chest almost exploded.
"I said, I—not—want to—"
The last hoarse "death" word has not yet finished roaring, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changes.
They seemed to fall into a soft cloud, and the warm wind gently held up their bodies, like two broad palms, pulling them up slowly, and finally landed steadily on the ground.
The word "death" stuck in Wu He's throat.
His pupils shrank violently, and his eyes lit up with incredible light.
Xie Heng drew his ears from the side, and said in doubt: "It is windy on the road. If you have any words, you can wait for a while-what did you say just now?"
"me……"
Wu He's voice trembled, trembling with every syllable, and drifting into the distance with the joyous circling wind.
In front of him is a white wall.
Not far away, there is a city.
A city made of materials he had never seen before, and it seemed to glow in the sun.
There are people coming and going in the city, and even demons. They don't shy away from their identity, showing their ears or tails with big thorns, walking upright in the street, smiling and greeting the residents who come and go.
Wu He was so shocked that he could not speak for a while.
Aside, Xie Hengke smiled clearly, giving him time to react intimately.
Only an understatement, but proudly concealed and said something softly.
"Welcome... to Taoyuan."
