The woman smiled slightly and said, "You're lucky to have met me. Otherwise, I'm afraid you might not be able to find the mountain gate after walking for several months."
Shen Lian saw a stunned scene. From the top of the cliff, a girl in purple clothes actually walked down step by step, as if an invisible ladder was born in the void.
There is emptiness in front of you, and there is emptiness behind you. Farther away, there are thousands of walls standing tall.
There is neither sadness nor joy on the girl's face, her clothes are fluttering, and her black hair is fluttering. She is not an immortal, but is better than an immortal.
But for a moment, Shen Lian was stunned and smelled a refreshing fragrance, which was bright and pure, reminding him of the cloudless starry sky.
The girl was already in the sky in front of her, about ten feet away. With her white fingers, she pointed towards him slightly. Shen Lian suddenly felt a strange feeling under his feet, but a cloud of smoke appeared, carrying him up slowly.
It was not until later that he learned that the Taoist technique used by the girl was called the 'Xiao Zhu Tianyun Forbidden Technique'.
Suddenly they were high in the sky, and the ethereal Qingxuan Mountain in front of them became more and more real.
Only when the clouds are misty and the dusk is deep can one see the sky high and the sea vast.
Flying on the clouds is an immortal method in myths and legends. Shen Lian experienced it for the first time, and became more and more fascinated by the immortal methods.
Before he had time to think about anything, Shen Lian fell down, the clouds dissipated, and he was down to earth.
In the distance is a bustling town with people coming and going.
Shen Lian looked back to look for the girl, but her trace was elusive and hard to find.
He knew in his heart that the girl must be a Senryu figure in Qingxuan, so she had such a method. At the same time, I am envious of his magical power that he can come and go freely. This is the beauty of longevity.
When we arrived at the entrance of the town, the three characters "Nanke Town" were engraved on the boundary monument, which was eye-catching.
One stroke after another, you can see how long the years have passed.
It is said that it is a town, but there are not as many people in it as a village.
As far as the eye can see, there is only one street in the town.
Logically speaking, no strangers should have been here for a long time, but the people in the town were not particularly excited to see a stranger like Shen Lian.
Shen Lian was slightly alert in his heart, because this world is similar to the ancient times of the earth. Many people were born here, grew up here, and died here, and have never been to other places in their lives.
It is said that it is difficult to leave one's homeland, and that is probably true.
So when you see a stranger, you should be very curious.
Curiosity is human nature. He didn't believe that the people here were all devoid of desire.
There were actually not many people on the street, only about thirty or forty, half of whom were children from several years old to teenagers.
Whether adults or children, looking at Shen Lian was like looking at a dying person. No one took the initiative to talk to him, and Shen Lian did not take the initiative to talk.
One day he could tell that all the people here had some martial arts background, and one or two of them could even tell that they had practiced the Shenzu Sutra.
The Shenzu Jing is a martial art that combines movement and stillness, and Shen Lian uses this technique to practice Qi, so it is easier to see.
The mysterious girl in purple said before that he was a child of which family, maybe that was why.
It's just that Shen Lian's Divine Foot Meridian has been practiced to the point of penetrating the eight extraordinary meridians. It can be said that it is successful. If it is deliberately restrained, ordinary people cannot see it.
In fact, although everyone here has martial arts skills, it can be said that they can penetrate the eight extraordinary meridians, but no one on the street has reached this level.
In fact, the connection between the two meridians of Ren and Du is recorded in the Taoist Scriptures, and is also called foundation building.
It is after this point that we have the foundation for practice.
Even if you have the best mental skills, it is not easy to get to this point, and if you fail to penetrate the two channels of Ren and Du before middle age, it will only become more difficult in the future. If Yang Xuan, the green-robed man, was not in a life-and-death dilemma and his potential was not stimulated, he might have There is no hope in my life of opening up these two special meridians and experiencing this first step into the Tao.
Apart from the sparse houses, there is only one restaurant in the town, and this is the only place where people can live.
This is what Shen Lian came to after observing for a period of time.
The restaurant is called "Yan Bugui", but there are no couplets beside the door.
When Shen Lian entered the restaurant, a bartender came up to greet him.
The bartender was very enthusiastic and said, "What would you like to eat, sir?"
"What are you using to settle the bill? Is this okay?" Shen Lian took out a gold leaf. Gold is probably a rare thing everywhere.
"Because during this period, guests from outside can eat and stay at the hotel free of charge." The bartender smiled. He was already in his thirties. He had a towel on his shoulders and a thick callus on his mouth. In the world of martial arts, he is bound to be able to make a name for himself, but he is just a small bartender here.
"Why is this?" Shen Lian asked calmly.
The bartender laughed and said, "I'm afraid to tell you that you have no appetite for food."
"I've always had a good appetite, but it doesn't matter if you say so."
"Then I'll say it, because the boss said that you are all going to die. If I don't let you eat enough, I'm afraid it will be too wronged." The bartender laughed.
"I see. Since I'm going to die, please bring me some good wine and food." Shen Lian smiled casually.
The bartender didn't answer immediately, and suddenly reached out and patted Shen Lian on the shoulder. His fingers were slightly bent. This was an extremely powerful grappling technique. The force was experienced, and it would not have been possible without ten or twenty years of experience.
But Shen Lian made a mistake and made a mistake, leaving the bartender at a loss.
The bartender was slightly startled and said with a smile: "I saw a little gray on your shoulders and wanted to give you a pat. There's no harm in that."
Shen Lian gently wiped the dust off his shoulders, smiled calmly and said, "I won't bother you, but you still want to bring me some food and drinks."
The bartender spread his hands, asked him to find a table, and then went to get a drink.
The lobby of this restaurant is not small, and there are many people sitting sparsely.
Most of the clothes are made of good quality, and their looks and bearing are different from ordinary people.
These people were divided into several groups and each formed a table.
Among them, Shen Lian was sitting alone at a table, so he was obviously alone.
Most of the people gathered around looked at Shen Lian and the others with vague eyes.
Shen Lian silently counted, including him, there were four people who were alone like him, and those who were gathered together totaled five tables.
They are all about the same age, and there are about three middle-aged people mixed in with them. If their temples are high and bulging, or their eyes are shining, it is obvious that these three middle-aged people are all top masters in the world.
According to Ye Liuyun, those under the age of twenty are not eligible for Qingxuan, unless there are rare special circumstances.
These people of similar age to him were probably the disciples of the Jianghu family who knew that Qingxuan had opened its doors to accept disciples, or the secluded sects such as Feixian Island.
The person who was alone was probably in a similar situation to him, either by chance, or by chance getting the news.
There is still more than a month before Qingxuan opens the mountain gate, and there must be an invisible competition among them.
