Late Night Tales Of The Capital

Chapter 142: All the way south

Views:

The twilight of dawn illuminates Zen Mountain.

The morning sun has not yet risen, the air is filled with the chill of dawn, the white frost grass is covered with gray crystals, and two early larks are singing in the twilight sky.

At the junction of Zen Mountain and the sky, a huge morning star hangs high, staring at the earth like a lonely eye. The silhouette of the sky held its breath and listened quietly to the trembling of the creatures, and the surrounding fields were all shrouded in a mysterious thinness.

In Youbei after the snow, the temperature drops even lower, and the splashing water turns into ice.

On the trail leading from Youzhou to Qingzhou, more than a dozen horses and two carts swayed all the way south.

Chen Chenchen wrapped himself into a big rice dumpling, and the thick scarf covered most of his face, only two eyes were exposed to observe the route ahead.

The carriage and horses were bought at a high price from Luotuo Town at the foot of Zen Mountain. During the prosperous dynasty, there has been no war for several years, and this place is close to the grassland. It is not difficult to find horses. After all, money can turn ghosts. Practitioners may soon learn about the strange situation in Youbei, but ordinary people's news is still very closed.

It seems that the imperial court did not respond in a timely manner to the death of the 200,000 Ye family troops, and even the documents from the Ministry of War were issued extremely slowly. To this day, the imperial envoys from Luoyang have not even reached Fancheng. If they really want to intervene, at this speed, even if the 200,000 troops are lucky enough to survive, they will never be able to wait for the rescue.

The cunning rabbit is cooked by the dog, and the bird is hidden by the bow.

Ye Jiajun is the lackey who chases rabbits and the bow who shoots birds.

From Youzhou to Luoyang, thousands of miles away, it is definitely inappropriate and unrealistic to go all the way southward with Yujian. A group of rookie cultivators, most of them from the psychic star realm, could only choose the most primitive method and go south on horseback.

Ever since Ye Que discovered the secret of the Heavenly Book, he asked for a carriage for himself.

Lei Tianyou, the elder brother of Fenglei Pavilion, was still seriously injured and unconscious, so naturally he couldn't ride a horse.

Just like that, a not-too-big cavalry team appeared on the trail going south. In order to prevent demons from chasing after them based on their traces, Ye Que made some preparations in advance. Buy some time.

Sitting in the carriage in the middle of the horse team, Ye Que crossed his legs, closed his eyes, and kept studying the formations recorded in the Xuanwen in the heavenly scriptures. From time to time, a strange lotus flower of spiritual power bloomed around his body. When the flower bloomed and withered, it represented A Xuanwen has been learned by Ye Que.

Hongdou lay beside Ye Que on his side, poking the spirit flowers with his hands in a bored manner, with a bored expression, "Why do you want to practice during such a good time? Isn't it good to tell stories?"

"It's so boring."

He looked Ye Que up and down, from the strands of hair to the soles of his feet, and then looked again. Suddenly, I realized that Ye Que's nails were a bit long, and I didn't know what Hongdou was thinking, so I picked up my big black umbrella and climbed to Ye Que's hand, carefully pulled Ye Que's fingers to my eyes, and then used the big black umbrella to crawl to Ye Que's hand. The umbrella, the sharpest part of the umbrella tip, starts to be polished.

It was originally just to pass the time.

Therefore, the red beans are polished very meticulously, first with the thumb, then the index finger, until the little finger, and switch to the other hand after one hand is polished.

For a whole half a day, Hongdou lay beside Ye Que's hand without moving.

When Ye Que digested the forty-one Xuan Wen again, Hong Dou just finished the work, looked at the fruits of his labor, and nodded with satisfaction.

"How long has it been?" Ye Que looked at Hongdou.

"Three hours." Without even thinking about it, Hongdou said casually, raising Ye Que's hand as if to show off, and then pointed to his nails, which were neatly trimmed at this time, and even the curvature of each nail was neatly trimmed. Not bad at all.

A master of cultivation in the Wuxiang Realm, he fights neatly and neatly, and he is also good at manicure.

"Is boring?"

Ye Que subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed Hongdou's long black hair, and then rolled his eyes in exchange.

"nonsense!"

"Aren't you going to be number one in the world among practitioners? Then hurry up and practice." Ye Que said calmly.

"You don't need to worry about this, I practice differently from you, and you won't understand even if I tell you." Hongdou glanced at Ye Que impatiently, which seemed to mean, "You don't want to tell me a story, but you still want to ask me questions." ? Good idea!"

Seeing Hongdou's angry look, Ye Que smiled and suddenly became interested.

Ling Kong drew a somewhat strange formation model in the carriage, and then nodded at Hongdou, does that mean understandable

Disdainfully rolled his eyes at Ye Que again, "Don't think that I didn't know how to use violence to destroy the magic formation when I was in the Dragon Vein Imperial Mausoleum. It is to learn various exercises, sword formulas, sword formulas, etc., which of course includes formations."

"Using violence to break the phantom array, I just disdain to dismantle it step by step."

"It's troublesome."

"It doesn't mean I won't."

"The formation model you drew just now should be a small fascination formation. It has almost no attack power, but it is very confusing. It does not even need to consume spirit stones. The environment can have a very good effect." Hongdou said while clicking a few points in the air, "These positions are the core of the formation."

Frowning and thinking for a moment, Ye Que lifted the curtain of the carriage, "Stop."

"Everyone rest where they are."

After finishing speaking, Ye Que got out of the carriage, and then began to observe the road when he came. There is a string of sparse horseshoe prints.

Thinking back to the formation that he learned just now, and the core that Hongdou pointed out, Ye Que quickly started to work on the side of the road. For a quarter of an hour, Ye Que hardly stopped. The road looks like it was just now, the trees are still the same as before, and the snow on the ground has not changed, but Ye Que knows that this place has changed from before.

He has set up a formation here!

A long-lost ancient lost circle.

As long as the demon is still thinking about cutting grass and roots, sooner or later he will chase along the Zen Mountain, and he will definitely be caught up if he walks unhurriedly. The half-step Wuxiang Moxiu was killed by Ye Que and Hongdou, so the next time he comes It will definitely be more powerful.

The formation was properly arranged, the horse team continued to set off, and Ye Que continued to sit back in the carriage.

Enter meditation and practice, continue to study the formations recorded in the heavenly book.

Xuanwen has been thoroughly studied one by one.

The higher the Xuanwen floated in the heavenly book, the more complicated the formations recorded in it seemed, but the speed of Ye Que's study increased rather than decreased. And he found a trick, as long as there is a formation that is not very clear, he will open his eyes and discuss it with Hongdou. After all, she is a little dragon girl who has lived for hundreds of years, so she really knows more about formation than Ye Que.

However, much is also limited.

When the horse team went out for two days, Ye Que discussed the formation with Hongdou again. The little girl was already feeling the pressure, and she didn't seem to be as familiar with it as she was on the first day. Que himself has already figured it out, Hongdou is still thinking.

The study of formations is about innate talent. In his previous life, Ye Que spent most of his training time on how to fight, and indeed rarely dabbled in formations. This time, I was very happy to see the vast and profound infinite formation in the book of heaven, and this joy quickly turned into obsession, and the obsession was out of control.

All the way south.

Study all the way.

Ye Que seemed to have given up even the time to eat. He was studying formations in the carriage when others were on their way, he was studying formations while others were eating, and he was still studying formations while others were sleeping...

Originally, he practiced the heavenly scriptures every day and accumulated the thickness of the heavenly yuan, but Ye Que directly suspended it.

Walk all the way, study all the way, practice all the way.

In the beginning, it took several hours for Ye Que to let everyone stop for a while, and then he would arrange a newly learned formation on the way when he came. The further you go, the more frequently the team stops, first for five hours, then for four hours, for two hours, and later, every hour will stop.

The speed at which Ye Que arranged formations also became faster and faster.

The pickiness of the surrounding environment is no longer harsh, and the more formations you learn, the more you can adapt to different scenarios.

As for the group of young people who followed Ye Que to the south, they thought it was pretty good at first, and they could rest for a while after walking for a while, but the rest became more frequent as they went on.

Time came to the third day.

The horse team finally walked out of Youbei, and after crossing two more mountain passes, even if they had left Youzhou County, everyone was obviously relieved.

Not surprisingly, as soon as the horse team stopped, Ye Que ran out of the carriage, and then began to work at the end of the road. Now not only Ye Que, but even Hongdou participated in it, but more often, Hongdou just Frowning her willow leaves and bent eyebrows, she stood aside and watched, she would not interfere, nor would she speak to disturb her.

Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and is an artifact that supports offline reading. huanyuanapp.org

Chen Chenchen from Duanwangling looked at Ye Que's back and was a little confused, "What's wrong with Mr. Ye these few days? It feels weird. He doesn't eat, sleep, or talk to everyone. What should I do?" Couldn't it be madness?"

The other two teenagers sitting next to him subconsciously nodded in agreement.

"Should I go to persuade you?"

"It's a long way to go to Luoyang. Mr. Ye must not have any accidents."

"I think it's necessary."

Seeing that Ye Que walked a little far this time, the young people finally spoke out what they were holding in their hearts. Guan Shuheng and Yang Nuanyue also frowned, but they didn't discuss with others.

"Ahem..."

A slight cough came from the carriage, Guan Shuheng subconsciously rushed to the side of the carriage, and opened the curtain, "Brother, are you alright?"

Last night, Lei Tianyou, the elder brother of Fenglei Pavilion, finally woke up, but his spirit was not very good, but fortunately, his life was out of danger. Since this morning, Lei Tianyou has not slept again, persisting Start to settle down and recover your true essence.

At this time, I just woke up from the meditation, raised the curtain with my hand, and looked at Ye Que's back, "Don't follow other people to talk nonsense, this Mr. Ye is not insane, he is setting up a formation, otherwise Why do you think that three days have passed and no shadow of a demon has appeared!"
