Three days later, Sang Bugui, Xuanji, and Beifeng returned. When Sang Bugui returned Hua Jinglan's sword manual, he said, "Tang Fen refused to accept this book and only agreed to help find a method to induce pregnancy."
Hua Jinglan smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Jiaoyue, put the sword manual away."
"Madam, she doesn't seem surprised." Sang Bugui couldn't help but ask.
"He is different from Tang Jihe. He is too young." Hua Jinglan chose a neutral statement. In fact, he was too stupid and straightforward. He would definitely despise the exchange of benefits. It is certain that he sent the sword manual back without even reading it. of.
"Now that Su Huan has not come back, shall we continue on the road?" Chun Yuyan asked.
Hua Jinglan nodded, "Sooner or later, we will meet Tang Jihe. Let's go to Jiuhe City all the way to wait for news about Su Huan!"
"Mrs. Lan is going to Jiuhe City?" Lu Xingzheng walked in from outside the courtyard, and with him were the three Lei Lei brothers and sisters.
"Exactly." Chunyu Yan said.
Lu Xing smiled and said: "To go to Jiuhe City, you must pass through Yuyang City. Why don't Mrs. Lan enjoy the joy of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix in Yuyang City?"
"A hundred birds are paying homage to the phoenix?" Hua Jinglan was slightly surprised.
"This is a happy event held by the imperial court this year. It is said to be a blessing for the royal family. Once the bird beast tribe's Hundred Birds Chaohuang is selected, they can enter the imperial city to pray for the Holy One." Lu Xing said with joy: "Once selected, It is the glory of the family.”
He paused and then said: "My wife is in frail health. If I can gain the favor of the royal family, I might be able to get some healing elixir.
"
He's really kind.
Hua Jinglan smiled gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, but I'm afraid my body won't be able to support it."
Lu Xing was slightly disappointed and said: "That day I was attracted by Madam's Magpie Bridge. Although the birds controlled by Madam are small, they are of many kinds, but they are pure birds. They can wind up in the sky and form streams. There are not many. See you, maybe you can get some luck."
"Master Lu's birds and beasts are of extraordinary brilliance, and he will definitely win the first place in one fell swoop." Chunyu Yan changed his topic.
Lu Xing may have realized that he was asking too much, so he smiled apologetically and said, "Mrs. Lan and I met by chance, and I feel that we are destined to be together. If one day I can enter the palace to meet the saint, I will definitely do my best for her!"
"Thank you so much." Chunyu Yan said with cupped hands.
After Lu Xing finished speaking, Lei Lei also came forward and said: "The Serpent Clan cannot go to crowded places. I am afraid that my three brothers and sisters will have to be separated from you here."
After saying this, he turned to Chunyu Yan and said, "We will meet again one day as a gentleman."
Chunyu Yan understood the meaning of his words and said, "Brother Lei, walk slowly."
Before Lei Yan left, he glanced at Hua Jinglan, and when he caught a glimpse of Nie Xiaoyang with an unkind expression next to him, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and left angrily.
Lu Xing stayed and said, "Mrs. Lan and I are on the way, and nothing is urgent in Yuyang City, so why not take a companion."
"Okay." Hua Jinglan nodded.
Jiao Yue and others had already started to pack their luggage. Hua Jinglan called Ling Xiu and said to her: "You and Wen Ruyu are both string magicians. If you stay with me now, it will only increase your risk. So I hope you will switch to long string magic from now on." sword."
Lingxiu looked at her in surprise, "But I'm not good at using a long sword, as long as I don't use the string when fighting."
"No," Hua Jinglan objected: "Not only must you use a long sword, but you must also hand over all the strings on your body, leaving only the ones used to save your life."
"Why?!" Lingxiu couldn't help but raise his voice.
"When you study string art, your first reaction when encountering danger is to use strings. Even if you are given a long sword, I'm afraid you will abandon it by then." Nie Xiaoyang saw that Hua Jinglan looked bad, so he answered for her: "If If you meet the Juexian lineage in Tianshui Kingdom, not only will you not survive, but you will also bring trouble to our ancestors."
Lingxiu moved his lips, but couldn't refute. It was just that he and Wen Ruyu were found by Juexian's lineage. If Hua Jinglan was implicated, he would be to blame for his death.
"Okay," she took out the bell tied to her wrist, and then pulled out several more bells from her body and handed them to Nie Xiaoyang, "That's it."
Hua Jinglan nodded with satisfaction, "Change your clothes so that no one will recognize you."
Ling Xiu nodded and left.
Setting off early the next morning, Lu Xing told Hua Jinglan a lot of ways to control birds and beasts, which gave her a lot of insights. Unfortunately, her energy was limited and she could only listen to him for half an hour a day.
Looking at Lu Xing feeding the giant phoenix from a distance, Hua Jinglan asked puzzledly: "Each clan of beasts lives in its own place. As the clan leader, why is Lu Xing so persistent in court?"
"Although he is the clan leader," Chun Yuyan took over the words: "Lan'er, have you ever noticed that there is no one else around him?"
"The Orochi clan also travels together with three people. It can be seen that the strength and quantity of the beast clan determine the survival of the race. Even if Lu Xing is the clan leader, I am afraid that there are only a few people in the clan."
"That's right!" Jin'er poked his head out from the side and said, "There are only a few descendants of the bird and beast tribe, not to mention that birds and beasts are easy to control. In recent years, many ordinary people can also control one or two birds. When it comes to making a living, the descendants of the bird and beast tribe are not favored. Although there are also big eagle tribes and giant eagle tribes, other birds are completely different, and their status cannot be compared."
Hua Jinglan reached out and tapped his head, "You know a lot!"
"This is the place where I was born, how could I not understand!" Jin'er said proudly.
"After talking for so long, let's rest for a while." Chun Yuyan said softly from the side.
Jin'er turned around and went somewhere else, while Hua Jinglan turned around and took a nap against the soft quilt.
Halfway through the run, he was originally going to see the giant phoenix, but was stopped by Da Wu. He hesitated and said: "Little master, since we are almost at Jiuhe City, you...?"
Jin'er shook him off impatiently, "I've never seen you talk so much before. Now that you've arrived in Jiuhe City, have you become bolder?"
Dawu quickly took a step back: "I don't dare, I'm just worried about my little master's safety!"
"You talk a lot, and stay out of things that are not your business." Jin'er turned around coldly.
Dawu looked at his back and seemed to sigh.
