Bai Fanlu wanted to bid farewell to Ling Qingzi, only to find out that the master had retreated again, and Yun Zhan was about to leave the mountain as soon as he took over as acting head. At present, the affairs of Tianshumen were temporarily handed over to Wang Chongyu for management.
Wang Chongyu sent the two of them down the mountain, told Bai Fanlu to "be careful in everything", and nodded slightly to Yun Zhan, exchanging a look that Bai Fanlu couldn't understand.
After leaving the mountain gate, the two walked forward directly with their swords. Bai Fanlu stepped on the sword. I don't know if it's because his body is recovering now or he is more proficient in his business. The new sword is quite smooth to use, and it feels like stepping on a balance car when flying in the clouds.
They didn't stop until a post teahouse.
Yun Zhan didn't speak on the way, and Bai Fanlu was happy not to have to deal with him.
As for the title, after repeated thinking yesterday, he concluded that he would continue to call him "Junior Brother".
Now that he has made a statement with Yun Zhan, he will draw a clear line with him in the future. If Yun Zhan asks about it one day, he will say that is the reason, and he only treats Yun Zhan as a junior, so it is inconvenient to use the previous title.
Both of them have cultivated immortal bodies, so they don't have to drink water, but there are others at the inn, and when the waiter came to ask, Yun Zhan still ordered a pot of tea.
It was noon now, and the sun was rising. I didn't feel it when I was riding the sword just now. After sitting down and drinking tea, Bai Fanlu wondered why they didn't just teleport to their destination since they had to fly for so long
In view of the short-term successful experience, Bai Fanlu has not yet fully understood the mechanism of this teleportation, but it is impossible to ask Yun Zhan why he does not teleport.
While sipping tea, I heard the shop waiter chatting with a customer at another table.
"What? The guest officer is here to join relatives? Oh, haven't you heard? This Yufang City is not peaceful now!"
"Ah? There are even monsters in Yufang City? No way? Isn't there..."
"I'm not sure it's a monster, anyway, it's a bit of an evil thing. People from the city say it's scarier than a monster. Several people have died..."
Yun Zhan's slender fingers rubbed the side of the cup, and he looked down at the muddy tea, seemingly carelessly, but Bai Fanlu knew that he also heard those words.
No reason, because the current plot is connected with the book. The two of them were ordered by their teacher to go down the mountain to secretly investigate the loss of control of the monsters in the human world. There were two main targets, Yingzhou in the extreme east, and Lingcheng in the extreme north. But because I heard the rumors about Yufang City on the way, I decided to go and find out first.
Bai Fanlu didn't want to go to Yufang City, where the original owner was deceived by Yun Zhan and was almost molested by disguised as a woman. Although Bai Fanlu thought he could avoid it, he didn't want to have any strange risks either.
With an idea, Bai Fanlu leaned over slightly and said in a low voice, "Junior brother, Yingzhou and Lingcheng are both far away, so I'm afraid we won't be able to delay."
"Yeah." Yun Zhan gently tapped the wooden table with his hand rubbing the rim of the cup.
Bai Fanlu guessed that the hero's compassion for the first road made him a war between heaven and man in the decision of whether to change his course, so he gave him a step down.
"Why don't you and I split up, and I'll go to Yingzhou to investigate first, how about that?"
Hearing this, Yun Zhan raised his eyes and looked at Baifan Road.
His eyes are slender, and when he looks sideways at people, the blue light at the bottom of his eyes is like frost on a cold rock, Bai Fanlu's heart is pounding, he is afraid that he will be seen as a little girl in his heart, but he does not show timidity on the surface, Looking back at him quite naturally.
In order to avoid having to look into these eyes for a long time in the future, he must hold back the confrontation now, to the point of death!
"Alright." Yun Zhan said in a quiet tone.
He actually agreed! Bai Fanlu suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and said lightly, "Since that's the case, I'll set off right away, so I can arrive as soon as possible to avoid delays."
In the end, he still didn't forget to put on a show, "Junior brother needs to be cautious when going to Yufang City, and if there is any situation, send me a message immediately."
Yufang City is close to the teacher's gate, no matter what the situation is, it will be more useful than looking for him all the way.
Bai Fanlu saw this right. Although Master gave them a pair of blue birds, they couldn't quench their thirst at a distance.
To put it bluntly, this is a dedicated telephone line. Even if you make a call, you have to have someone willing to answer it.
I believe that Yun Zhan is not that stupid. After he runs away, won't he be able to sit back and relax
Besides, regarding the matter of Yingzhou in the east, Bai Fanlu already knew the plot, if it wasn't for taking a trip to show off, he could almost report the result directly to Ling Qingzi.
And if he really went with Yun Zhan, it wouldn't be as simple as just pretending, it would definitely have to be a real fight.
Now is the right time to separate from Yun Zhan and go on his own. As long as he confirms that the story has not changed, then when Yun Zhan finds him again, he will tell him that he has finished the investigation.
It can not only speed up the progress and go home earlier, but also avoid more contact with Yunzhan, and also take the opportunity to travel around the mountains and rivers.
Perfect! Killing many birds with one stone!
Without further ado, Bai Fanlu rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and left as soon as he said he would, for fear that Yun Zhan would regret it.
But Yun Zhan was still sitting where he was, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea slowly, neither saying goodbye to him, nor giving him any instructions, and he didn't say a word about what happened next.
Bai Fanlu walked a certain distance, and vaguely felt that it was too easy to get away in this way, there would be no fraud, right
He walked a few more steps, dodged and hid behind a tree, and looked back quietly. The post station was far away, but the blue figure was still quite conspicuous lingering under the wooden house.
Bai Fanlu immediately pinched his fingers, silently recited a place name, and cast the teleportation technique.
This time, Bai Fanlu discovered the basic rules of the teleportation technique. Last time he only wanted to go to the human world and didn't say where he was going, so he randomly came to Heguan Town, and this time he wanted to go to Yingzhou. The direction was right, but it landed outside Dongchang City, which was thousands of miles away from Yingzhou.
Dongchang, Bai Fanlu remembers that it was mentioned in the book that it is a necessary place to go to Yingzhou, so the teleportation technique is roughly the same, but the distance is limited, and it is impossible to reach the destination directly at once.
Calculated in this way, it may not be much faster than Yujian, but if it is purely consuming one's own aura without relying on Feijian, it is indeed not cost-effective to use long-range non-emergency situations.
Bai Fanlu found a hidden place outside the city to adjust his breath for a while before entering the city.
Dongchang City is much larger than Heguan Town last time, and the crowds are denser, so even if he is not concealing his white clothes, he will not be too eye-catching.
As expected of a big place, in the afternoon, most people should go back to their homes, but the streets of the main city are still very lively, there are even many diners in the restaurant, melodious ditties come from time to time, sometimes mixed with Shouting and clapping.
Bai Fan Road wanted to find a small vendor to buy food, but he couldn't find it, so he also entered the restaurant and sat down on the second floor by the window.
The waiter came over, and he said, "Two delicious dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and the wine will be free."
After finally regaining his freedom, he first satisfies the appetites of the mortals.
"Okay, sir, just wait a moment!"
Baifan Road leaned against the window and looked into the distance first. The houses in the city were square and neatly planned. He observed for a while boredly, and suddenly heard a clear tone coming from below, as if someone was playing a pipa just now. A man in gray shorts stood on the wooden platform at this moment.
Bai Fanlu glanced at him casually, there were quite a few spectators gathered around the wooden stage, his direction was diagonally behind the stage, the man was still wearing a straw hat, Bai Fanlu couldn't see his face clearly, but the laughter just now Poking his aesthetics.
"Folks, thank you for your support. Next, I will perform 'Monkey Stealing Peach' for everyone. Please watch carefully!"
Bai Fanlu rested his chin by the window, watching with interest.
The man took off the straw hat on his head with one hand, and showed the broken top of the straw hat to the surroundings at close range, and at the same time circled the field for half a circle.
When he came here, Bai Fanlu couldn't help being stunned for a glimpse of that side face.
He is a rather handsome young man, and his side face...
For a moment, Bai Fanlu flashed, the boy returned to the middle of the field and blew a loud whistle, only to see a white monkey jumping out from nowhere, dexterously climbing onto the boy's shoulder, jumping twice, and then falling back to the ground. ground, rubbing hands, rubbing feet.
The naive gesture made everyone laugh for a while.
The boy grabbed the hat twice with his left hand, and pretended to be mysterious to remind the audience, "Don't blink..."
Everyone fell silent and widened their eyes.
Suddenly the monkey jumped up, jumped into the hat, and fell out of the hole in the hat again. When it landed again, everyone took a closer look. The little monkey held a small peach in each hand and squeaked happily on the stage.
"Haha! I really stole a peach!"
Someone in the audience took the lead in applauding, and everyone laughed happily. The boy put on his straw hat again, and bowed to the surroundings.
The little monkey brought a rice bowl from behind its master and begged for rewards one by one from the audience, and everyone threw copper coins to this cute little thing.
Bai Fanlu watched the whole process on it, smiled and shook his head.
Just at this time, the waiter in the shop brought the dishes, and laughter came from downstairs again, Bai Fanlu stopped looking at it, and concentrated on eating, and when he finished eating, the boy was no longer in the same place.
Bai Fanlu didn't care, he wandered around the street casually, and asked for a room at an inn in the evening.
Because he wasn't sure if he would use his sword or teleport in the remaining time of the day, he would have to spend the night in the wilderness at night. To be on the safe side, he decided to leave tomorrow.
This time, in order not to make any mistakes, Bai Fanlu stayed behind closed doors as soon as he checked into the inn, and quietly adjusted his breath for an hour.
When it got dark, the shopkeeper came to ask if he needed dinner and a bathtub, but he declined them all. He casually cast a cleansing mantra, and then fell back to rest.
If all goes well, he will be able to reach Yingzhou within two days. Although he has already figured out how to avoid fighting, he is not afraid of 10,000 but just in case.
But although the idea is good, the old problem of insomnia cannot follow the idea.
Bai Fanlu recalled the plot of the original novel while counting sheep. In a daze, I don’t know how many times the sound of watchdogs outside the window came from far away. Bai Fanlu heard it, opened his eyes slightly, and was about to close them again when suddenly, There was an unusual noise.
On the upper left, two footsteps of different severity.
It was a bit messy, and there seemed to be the sound of cracking tiles, and now it was directly above him!
Just as Bai Fanlu sat up in a hurry, he heard a bang, a big hole was broken in the roof, and a figure descended from the sky. Bai Fanlu had no time to escape, and was directly pinned down by that person.
There was another loud bang, and the bed... collapsed.
Bai Fanlu originally wanted to push the man away, but when the bed collapsed, he lost his balance, and the two of them rolled to the ground together.
After rolling twice, Bai Fanlu keenly noticed that the man's face was buried in his abdomen, and he hugged him desperately with both hands, one hand was tied around his waist, and the other hand was holding his... er, buttocks.
Bai Fanlu's heart skipped a beat.
Click! Another corner of the roof caved in, and several pieces of broken bricks fell right after, hitting the man on the head, screaming "Ouch, Ouch".
Hearing that voice, the concentrated palm wind in Bai Fanlu's hand instantly froze, and stopped a centimeter away from the person.
