In the end, the people of the world were unconventional. Kunlun Jade climbed on Ning Tao's back and he carried him out of the bamboo forest. He walked in uninhabited places and hid in advance when he encountered people.
It seems unnecessary and troublesome.
But Ning Tao felt it was necessary and didn't mind the trouble. For a man who wanted to open a door to see the immortal, he actually thought it was a shorter road and less trouble.
Just walking and hiding like this, in the evening, the two came to a ruined temple.
This ruined temple is Kunlun Yu's residence. Because there is no one and it is remote enough, it becomes her temporary hiding place.
Ning Tao picked up some dead wood and lit a fire in the empty Buddhist temple. When lighting the fire, he turned his back to Kunlun Jade and lit the dry wood with heavenly fire. Otherwise, he doesn't have a lighter or flint, so he can't hold a wooden stick and drill wood to make fire, right
Kunlun Yu was lying on a bed made of hay, watching Ning Tao busy coming and going. Everything about this man made her curious.
After lighting the fire, Ning Tao said, "Miss Yu, you take a rest here. I'll go out to catch some game and roast it for you."
"No, I'm not hungry..." Before she could finish her sentence, a gurgling sound suddenly came from Kunlun Yu's stomach.
How could she not be hungry
She was hit by an arrow in the thigh, she bled so much, and Ning Tao sucked so much blood out. Coupled with the fatigue of fighting and escaping, her belly was almost so hungry that it pressed against her back. But even though she was extremely hungry, she didn't want Ning Tao to go out. This was not because she was worried that Ning Tao would be in danger, but because she was worried that he would never come back. If he leaves, who will help her save her father and brother, as well as those clan members
There is another reason that even she herself doesn't know.
That is, when Ning Tao sees her, he will feel as close as a lover from another life, so why not she? She is the spirit of Xunzu Dan, and Ning Tao is the person she has been waiting for. How could she not feel anything about this meeting
When she was being chased and running for her life, she was so nervous and panicked that she couldn't feel it. Now that she calmed down, the feeling of being like a lover from another life slowly sprouted and became clearer and clearer.
With all these reasons, how could she keep Ning Tao out of her sight
Ning Tao didn't notice this, he smiled: "Look at you, you say you're not hungry, but your belly betrays you. You have injuries on your body, and you need to eat something to make up for it, and then you can carry it I’m going to save your father and brother, as well as your tribe, don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.”
"Then... be careful and don't go too far." Kunlun Jade warned, her face turned red. I don't know if it was the reflection of the fire or some other reason.
Ning Tao walked out of the ruined temple and awakened his eyesight. Many "lanterns" suddenly appeared around the ruined temple. They were the innate aerospace fields of insects and animals.
He quickly locked onto a hare and rushed towards it.
Hunting was nothing to him.
After a while, he hunted a hare and a sand grouse. He released the eclipse blade from the big sun gourd, and then dissected the hare and chicken in a stream behind the ruined temple.
He kept the Eclipse Blade by his side and did not put it into the Great Sun Gourd again. When going to save her father and brother, it was inevitable to take action. It was not easy for him to fire a bullet, but the eclipse blade was not bad either.
After taking care of the sand grouse and hare, Ning Tao walked around from behind the ruined temple to the front of the temple. At a glance, he saw Kunlun slave leaning on the threshold and looking around. When he saw him coming back, he retreated back to the main hall.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Is she really worried that I will run away?"
Entering the Buddhist hall, Ning Tao found two wooden sticks, skewered the sand grouse and hare that he had brought, and then put them on the fire to roast.
Although there are no condiments, the fire is enough. In a short time, the aroma of meat fills the Buddhist temple.
Kunlun Jade smelled the aroma of meat and became hungrier, and her stomach growled more frequently. She was embarrassed but couldn't control it. Her face turned red and red, and she was embarrassed to look at Ning Tao.
Ning Tao smiled and said: "What's the point of being embarrassed? We, the children of the world, don't stick to trivial matters. We are hungry when we are hungry. We eat when we are hungry. We drink when we are thirsty. We eat large pieces of meat and drink from large bowls. It is so enjoyable. Even the gods don’t change the days.”
"You..." Kunlun Jade hesitated to speak.
Ning Tao looked at her: "What's wrong with me?"
Kunlun Yu hesitated for a moment before speaking: "You really like to say that our children in the world don't stick to trivial matters. I've heard you say it almost twenty times since I met you."
Ning Tao: "..."
Doesn’t this remind you to let go
But obviously such words cannot be said directly, and must be detoured.
"May I ask where Master Ning is from?" Kunlun Yu asked. She had wanted to ask for a long time.
Ning Tao said: "I come from the South China Sea, a small island next to Penglai Immortal Island."
"Have you been to Penglai Immortal Island?"
"That's it. Although the small island where I live is right next to Penglai Island, I have never seen anything about Penglai Island. However, the old god who taught me martial arts has been there, and it was he who told me about this world. There is also Penglai Immortal Island, which is in the sea, but you can only see it if you are lucky." Ning Tao was talking nonsense.
"Ning Daxia's martial arts is unparalleled in the world. It turns out that it was taught by an expert. It's no wonder." There was a hint of envy and yearning in Kunlun Yu's eyes.
Who among martial arts practitioners wouldn’t want to meet such an old god? I have to pass on a unique skill, travel across the rivers and lakes, and enjoy grudges!
While chatting, the rabbit and chicken were roasted.
Ning Tao handed the roasted sand chicken to Kunlun Yu: "There are a lot of sand chicken here, you can eat the chicken."
Kunlun Yu said: "I can't eat such a big chicken, so you should eat the chicken."
Ning Tao said: "Let you eat chicken. You can eat chicken. We, the children of Jianghu..."
"Give me the chicken." Kunlun Jade interrupted Ning Tao, "I'll eat the chicken."
She took the sand grouse and started to chew it, not caring about the appearance of the food. She probably didn't want to hear the words "We, the people in the world, don't stick to trivial matters" for the twenty-first time, so she would rather eat chicken.
Ning Tao also took a bite of rabbit meat, recalling the conversation that seemed like a tongue twister just now, but it was this aftertaste that made him feel so embarrassed.
After eating half a sand grouse, Kunlun Yu became more energetic: "Ning Daxia, a powerful person like you must have many confidantes around you, right? May I ask your lady's name?"
Ning Tao smiled: "I feel ashamed to say that I am still single now. I would like to marry, have children, and teach martial arts, but I have never met the right one."
While talking, he deliberately glanced at Kunlun Jade and said to himself: "She probably doesn't know that I am the person her name is waiting for, right? By asking this, is it because she has awakened her feelings for me and is here to test her?"
Kunlun Jade avoided his sight and became nervous inexplicably: "I, I will show you a treasure."
"What baby?" Ning Tao asked.
Kunlun Yu didn't answer. She put down the half of the sand grouse that she couldn't eat, got up and walked to the shrine that was covered with dust and cobwebs.
Ning Tao looked at her walking posture and saw that her legs were still a little lame, but they were much better. He thought about resting here for one night and letting her rest for another day tomorrow. Then he could let her take him to rescue people tonight.
I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Although people in the world are informal, they still have to take the detours that need to be taken.
Kunlun Jade took out a brick from the shrine, then reached in and pulled out a cloth bag.
Ning Tao guessed what it was and said, "Miss Yu, if it's inconvenient, you don't have to show it to me."
In his eyes, Kunlun Jade's treasures are really not on the market. What kind of treasures has he not seen before
However, when Kunlun Yu came over with the cloth bag, he suddenly smelled a special smell.
That's the smell of spiritual energy.
Magic weapon
Ning Tao's heart moved, and he awakened the gazing state of his eyes, and then denied his judgment that had just emerged. The thing only had a little spiritual energy, not a magic weapon, and even if it was a spiritual material, it was just a relatively ordinary spiritual material.
This result is also normal, because if it is a very powerful magic weapon, he will be able to sense it as soon as he comes here, and will not find it until she takes it out.
Kunlun Jade came to Ning Tao's side and carefully opened the cloth bag.
The cloth is wrapped with a piece of jasper, the size of a palm, and the whole body is crystal clear. This jade was carved by craftsmen into the shape of a small book. Judging from the quality and craftsmanship of the jade, it is considered to be of the highest quality and valuable. But it is not only valuable as jade, there are some small characters inside it. When the fire shines on it, those small characters seem to be alive and glow faintly.
This is strange.
This era obviously did not have the technology to carve characters into jade. In the technological era more than a thousand years later, it would only be possible to carve characters on two pieces of jade and then combine them into one piece. But this jade looks like a piece of natural jade vertically, not synthetic jade. So who has such extraordinary skills to carve characters into jade
"This is the most precious treasure of our Zhaoye clan, the Zhaoye Heavenly Book. The clan leader said that there is a big secret hidden in the Zhaoye Heavenly Book, but I don't know much. I will know it once I rescue the clan leader." Kunlun Yu said.
"Zhaoye Tianshu, can I take it and read it?" Ning Tao said.
Kunlun Jade carefully held the Zhaoye Heavenly Book and handed it to Ning Tao.
Ning Tao picked up the Zhaoye Heavenly Book and read the words inside in the light of the fire.
Seeing this, he was stunned on the spot.
What was engraved in the Zhaoye Tianshu was not words, but runes, and it happened to be the Tianjia runes he was most familiar with. He cultivates the way of heaven, and the exercises and spells he learns all come from the Cauldron of Good and Evil. From the beginning to now, he has received countless heavenly runes, so he can identify them at a glance after seeing them clearly.
"Do you recognize these words?" Kunlun Jade saw that Ning Tao was looking at it seriously and couldn't help but asked curiously.
Ning Tao nodded: "Understood, these are not words, these are runes, the runes of people who cultivate immortality. My mentor is a person who cultivates immortality. He taught me some things."
Kunlun Yu said excitedly: "What is written there?"
