Taoist clothes, bamboo hats, Zen sticks.
In the hall on the first floor of Taiyi Hall, Lu Yangyu appeared in front of Jiang Beiran with a mixed and matched image with a strong sense of disobedience.
"Are you dressed like...?" Jiang Beiran sized Lu Yangyu up and asked.
"Courage." After Lu Yangyu finished speaking, he waved his Zen staff, "Let's go, let's go."
Looking at the gossip array painted on the back of Lu Yangyu's Taoist uniform, Jiang Bei couldn't help but feel a little funny, and at the same time wondered how horrible the ghost cultivator's residence was to scare Lu Yangyu like this.
Sitting on the flying shuttle that Lu Yangyu had prepared in advance, the two of them flew towards the outside of Shi Mansion together.
The moment he left Shifu, Jiang Beiran suddenly realized that apart from the time at Jinding Island, this was the first time he had gone out since he came to Shifu, and he had been "at home" for a long time.
However, as soon as he finished expressing his emotions, three system options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran's eyes.
[Option 1: Move on. Completion reward: Wind Dance Xuanlu (Earth-level low-grade)]
[Option 2: Head east. Completion reward: Dayi Danshu (mysterious level top grade)]
[Option 3: Head south, completion reward: random basic attribute point +1]
Seeing the familiar content of the options, Jiang Beiran's vigilance, which had been relaxed a little, instantly became full.
And the reason for his slack is mainly because he has been a little comfortable in Shi's house during this period of time. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to go to Xuanfang, a place where fish and dragons are mixed up, he will basically not jump out of any options.
Firstly, it was because he didn't go to crowded places, and secondly, Shi Hongyun was covering him, so it was quite difficult to move him in Shi's house.
But when he ran out, it was not the Shi family who had the final say in Tongguo. If he really messed up some big sect figure somehow, Shi Hongyun would just pretend not to know him, and it was impossible to sacrifice the interests of the family to save him.
So it should be low-key or low-key.
After confirming the course of action, Jiang Beiran stopped Lu Yangyu and said, "Tell me where you are going, and I will go ahead."
"Huh?" Lu Yangyu was a little confused, "Are you still afraid that I might lead you in the wrong direction? Don't worry, you can't make mistakes."
"No, it's just that I sensed danger nearby, so let me lead the way."
"Dangerous?" Lu Yangyu looked around, but saw nothing, "It's your carelessness..."
"listen to me."
Seeing Jiang Beiran's serious look, Lu Yangyu had no choice but to compromise, and told Jiang Beiran the place he was going to on the map.
After confirming the location, Jiang Beiran chose three and flew south.
[Optional task completed, reward: Constitution +1]
"Hey, it's reversed, it's reversed!"
Looking at the direction Jiang Bei ran away from, Lu Yangyu shouted loudly, he really didn't expect that this omniscient master would suffer from getting lost.
"No, just follow me and fly."
Seeing that Jiang Beiran didn't intend to stop at all, Lu Yangyu could only shake his head and sigh with emotion in a low voice.
"This Master Jiang is really... so different in every way."
…
Four hours later, as the sun was about to set in the western mountains, Lu Yangyu stepped forward and said to Jiang Beiran, "Beiran, if we keep going around like this, we might not be able to arrive tomorrow."
In the original plan, Lu Yangyu thought that he would arrive at noon, but who knew that Jiang Beiran's route did not follow the regulations at all, and it was fine to go around in circles, but also circled left and right, which really confused him. .
Looking at the sky, Jiang Beiran looked at Lu Yangyu and said, "Master Lu, please inform that ghost cultivator, we can't go today."
"What?"
This answer caught Lu Yangyu a little off guard, so why not go there
"Bei Ran... That Guixiu seldom sees people on weekdays. It's not easy to make an appointment with her. If you miss the appointment, I'm afraid..."
"It's okay, if you don't see it, then you won't see it. As for this favor, I will use other methods to compensate the owner."
"Hey, my own people, what are you saying about compensation or not? It's just..." Lu Yangyu thought for a while, but he still didn't ask Jiang Beiran what he wanted to do. After all, he knew that if he asked, he wouldn't get an answer.
"Okay, then I'll write to her now."
"Trouble the owner." After speaking, Jiang Beiran fell to the ground and started camping.
The reason why I can't find the master until tomorrow is naturally that the number of system prompts has almost reached the upper limit, and in this dangerous suburb, it is simply impossible for Jiang Beiran to move without system prompts.
"Go."
After releasing a wax-billed bird into the air, Lu Yangyu walked back to Jiang Beiran who was already lighting a fire and sat down.
"I'm so excited to set up a fire in this wilderness, facing the wind in the woods, smelling the fragrance of flowers and plants. It's wonderful, wonderful. If I can have a sip of hot wine at this time, it will be a bliss in the world."
Jiang Beiran smiled slightly after hearing this, set up an iron pot and put a pot of wine in it.
"I believe this pot of bone-changing mash will satisfy the palace master."
"Hahaha, good name! It sounds very strong! Did you brew it yourself, brother Beiran?"
"En." Nodding, Jiang Beiran took out some meat and bamboo sticks from the Qiankun Ring.
Lu Yangyu who smelled the smell of meat asked: "Brother Beiran, what are you going to do?"
"Make some skewers to eat."
"Grilled... skewers? Is this also a kind of food?"
"Yeah." Jiang Beiran nodded, and took some vegetables from the Qiankun Ring.
Seeing Lu Yangyu facing him, looking like he was watching his skewer, Jiang Beiran didn't bother to complain about "Are you blind?", but continued to skewer on his own.
After a while, Jiang Beiran, who had finished skewering the meat, took out the bone-changing mash from the hot pot, and took out two small cups from the Qiankun Ring.
"I'll fall, I'll fall."
Lu Yangyu, who had already been hooked, took the wine glass and wine jug graciously, first poured a glass for Jiang Beiran, and then filled it up for himself.
"Brother Beiran is working hard to prepare food, I will offer you a toast first."
"Master Lu is being polite." Jiang Beiran picked up another wine glass and held it in front of Lu Yangyu.
"Ding" After touching Jiang Beiran's wine glass, Lu Yangyu raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
"Hahahahaha! The bliss of the world! It really is the bliss of the world!"
After taking this sip, Lu Yangyu fully understood that what he drank before was really just horse urine, and it was nothing compared to this bone-changing mash.
Laughing wildly, Lu Yangyu filled another glass for himself, and drank another glass while shaking his head and saying "Bliss on earth".
At this time, Jiang Beiran, who had already put the grill on, put five skewers of good beef on it. Hearing the sound of "sizzling" on the grill, Jiang Beiran could clearly feel that he was salivating rapidly.
"Good wine! Beiran, come! I'll toast you again."
Just like this, cup after cup, the two of them quickly drank the pot of bone-changing mash. Of course, most of it went into Lu Yangyu's stomach.
Seeing Jiang Beiran take out an identical jug from the Qiankun Ring, Lu Yangyu immediately beamed with joy.
"It's still Beiran who knows how to hurt others, and how greedy I am."
Putting the jug into the pot, Jiang Beiran picked up a string of freshly tested beef and handed it to Lu Yangyu.
"Try it."
Although Lu Yangyu had never eaten this kind of grilled skewers, the smell that erupted when Jiang Beiran sprinkled spicy powder just now had already attracted his other greedy worm.
"Then I won't be polite."
After Lu Yangyu finished speaking, he took a bite of the beef skewers.
"Hey!" Lu Yangyu yelled, put the skewers in front of his nose and smelled them again and again, as if it was hard to believe that there is such a delicious food in the world.
After eating the rest of the skewers in one go, Lu Yangyu chewed the beef and said, "Bei Ran, is there anything in this world that you don't know?"
"That's too much." Picking up the bone-changing mash that had been scalding for a while from the pot, Jiang Beiran poured a glass for Lu Yangyu and said, "Drinking like this will have a special taste."
Lu Yangyu couldn't care less about chatting after listening to it, he didn't even find a reason to clink glasses, and just sat down with a glass to himself.
"Sure enough, it has a special flavor! Bliss, bliss!"
Just like that, the two chatted happily until it was completely dark. They glanced at Lu Yangyu who was already shaking a little, and Jiang Beiran who was eating a skewer suddenly asked, "How long has Master Lu been in Shi's house?"
Although Jiang Beiran and Lu Yangyu had known each other for a long time, they actually knew very little about each other, and it was only because of their congenial temperament that they got to where they are now.
Taking advantage of his drunkenness this time, Jiang Beiran planned to further deepen his friendship with Lu Yangyu, because after much deliberation, if he wanted to install an "informant" in Linglongfang, Lu Yangyu must be the best candidate at present.
Once he succeeds, he will have another help in the Shi family in the future.
Hearing Jiang Beiran's question, Lu Yangyu thought for a moment and replied: "It's been eight years. My master sent me here at that time. He told me that the tree is big enough to enjoy the shade. If I can get a firm foothold in Shi's house, I will be able to stay in Tong'an in the future." The country walks with a lot of confidence."
"Then Master Lu's goal should have been achieved."
"It's okay, you don't have a lot of toughness, even if you know a lot of masters and friends through the Shi family channel, it's not a loss."
"Then Master Lu intends to stay at Shi's house, or is he thinking of finding another way out?"
"Huh?" Hearing that there was something in Jiang Beiran's words, Lu Yangyu looked up at him and said, "Could it be that Brother Beiran wants to introduce me to some good places?"
"No." Jiang Beiran raised his glass as he spoke, "Just chatting, if Master Lu feels worried about me, you don't have to say anything."
"That's not true. I don't have many heart-to-heart friends in Shi's family. You, Beiran, are definitely one of them. There's nothing to worry about. It's just that I really haven't thought much about the way out in the future."
"Now my mind is full of how to pass the eighth-rank formation test. When I become an eighth-rank formation mage, it will not be too late to talk about the future."
"Oh? Master Lu is somewhat sure now."
"Five percent, it's really hard to be an eighth-rank formation mage. I failed a few years ago, and there's nothing I can do about the questions they asked."
Jiang Beiran nodded silently after listening, as long as Lu Yangyu has a dream, after all, his favorite thing to do is dream mentor.
'Although I'm a little old, it's quite interesting to accept an eighth-rank formation mage as a younger brother. '
After finishing the last bit of skewers, Jiang Beiran said good night to Lu Yangyu and went back to sleep.
The next morning, the two of them got on the shuttle again and flew towards the coordinates drawn by Lu Yangyu.
I don't know if today is a special day, but Jiang Beiran came to the valley Lu Yangyu mentioned after only encountering three system prompts.
"Is this the place?" Jiang Beiran stood outside the valley and asked Lu Yangyu.
Lu Yangyu couldn't figure it out at all right now, he was already prepared to continue detours, but this time he arrived at the place in one breath, and he couldn't make it right for a while.
"Yes, this is it." Lu Yangyu nodded.
After confirming the destination, Jiang Beiran looked around, and said, "Well, Yinyin formation... It seems that this ghost cultivator is also a master of formation."
"Master really has good eyesight." Lu Yangyu couldn't help cupping his hands towards Jiang Bei, "The formation here is indeed a Yin Yin formation, and it is because of this formation that I got to know this ghost cultivator."
"Oh?" Jiang Beiran glanced at Lu Yangyu in surprise. "You helped set up this formation?"
"No." Lu Yangyu shook his head, "I just helped from the side, mainly relying on her."
Hearing that the other party needs help from the side to set up the Yin Yin formation, Jiang Beiran has a preliminary understanding of the level of this ghost cultivator's formation. He is probably at the seventh rank like Lu Yangyu. Not low.
It's just that this yin array is a bit special, and it needs an extremely yin body to arrange it.
Lu Yangyu was obviously not, so the one with the extremely yin body must be that ghost cultivator.
The extremely yin body is also a special kind of physique. People with this kind of physique will be particularly strong in profound sense attacks, making many practitioners who are not so strong in profound sense fear like a tiger.
'Ghost cultivators and formation masters above the seventh rank have special physiques. '
Before they met, Jiang Beiran had already found three labels on the ghost cultivator who had never masked his face, and they were all quite rare labels.
'Talent...'
When Jiang Beiran was feeling emotional, Lu Yangyu swallowed, waved his Zen staff and said, "Let's go."
The effect of the yin formation is that it can greatly reduce the practitioner's profound sense defense, and it can be said to be the best partner for the extremely yin body.
If a cultivator in the same realm fights a body of extreme yin in the yin formation, ninety-nine out of ten will lose.
Looking at Lu Yangyu's unstoppable trembling after entering the battle, Jiang Bei felt that if he went up and patted him from behind now, it should be able to scare him into jumping three feet high.
After observing the surroundings again, Jiang Beiran stepped into the Yin Yin Formation.
'Hiss...'
Feeling the trembling all over, Jiang Bei gasped. Although he had heard about the power of the Yin Yin Formation, he never expected it to be so powerful. effect of the law.
Looking at the goosebumps on his hands, Jiang Beiran rubbed them a little, becoming more interested in this mysterious ghost cultivator.
"Hee hee hee, that idiot is here again, let's play with him."
"Okay, okay. Look at him like that, he dares to come here even if he is afraid of this."
"It's not good... The master told us not to scare us..."
"It's up to you whether you come or not! Coward!"
…
Just as Jiang Beiran was walking in while observing the surrounding terrain, three ghosts suddenly floated above his head, happily discussing how to scare Lu Yangyu to death.
