"Acquired disability?" Nanfeng looked at Zhuge Chanjuan, "What kind of situation is considered an acquired disability?"

Zhuge Chanjuan glanced at Nanfeng and said, "Being born deaf and mute definitely doesn't count."

"What are you thinking about?" Nanfeng shook his head helplessly. To be fair, Zhuge Chanjuan was pretty good, but there was one thing: she was too jealous. It was obvious that she was talking about her big eyes.

"Then why are you asking it?" Zhuge Chanjuan curled her lips.

Before leaving, Murong Lu left some daily necessities for the two of them. Nanfeng walked to the table and sat down. He organized his thoughts and said, "The herb I asked about originally grew on the top of Taiwu Mountain, but it was dug away later. , according to what Wan Zhongyi said, he may not have been born when the Taoist from the Zhou Dynasty lived here, or he may have been born and not yet become a spirit, otherwise he would not know anything about the situation in the Zhou Dynasty. During the Taoist Period of four or five hundred years, the reincarnation plant was dug away. Judging from the time, the person who dug up the reincarnation plant was probably a Han Dynasty person. At that time, I found a broken seal that sealed Han Xin's body and soul in the jungle in the northeast of Ju County. Temple, the Han Dynasty bell in the ruined temple has part of the Heavenly Book cast on it, so I suspect that those who came here may be Han Xin and others. If this is the case, the secret room has been opened by them, and the tortoise shell inside may have also been opened. No more."

After listening to Nanfeng's words, Zhuge Chanjuan nodded slowly, "It makes sense. Back then, Liu Bang's beloved Madam Qi had her limbs cut off by Empress Lu and turned into a human pig. They are looking for grass this time..."

Before Zhuge Chanjuan could finish speaking, Nanfeng waved her hand and interrupted her, "Queen Lu harmed Madam Qi after Liu Bang died, and Han Xin had already died by then. They should have been looking for the resurrection grass before then, and it was very possible. It’s to heal a certain injured general.”

Zhuge Chanjuan was a little surprised by Nanfeng's words, "How do you know this?"

"I grew up in Chang'an, and I heard a lot of similar things." Nanfeng said, knowledge depends on the living environment and the number of things experienced, and has no direct relationship with age.

"What are your plans now?" Zhuge Chanjuan pursed her lips to the east.

Nan Feng did not answer immediately. Only half of what he said before was based on grounded inferences, and the other half was unfounded guesses. He just suspected that there was no heavenly book here, but he was not sure. Now that he was here, doing so might be in vain. If you don't take action, you may miss the Book of Heaven.

In fact, the most correct thing to do is to find someone to translate the tripod text, and then invite Yuan Anning to come over and try to open the stone door.

The reason why he hesitated was because Zhuge Chanjuan was full of hostility towards Yuan Anning. Once she invited Yuan Anning over, Zhuge Chanjuan would definitely be dissatisfied. God knows what trouble she would cause.

Everything has advantages and disadvantages, and one cannot hesitate. The two benefits are more severe than the other, and the two harms are less severe. Finding the Book of Heaven is a major event, directly related to his life and death. It has been almost five years since he left the Taiqing Sect. There are only seven years left in the twelve-year period. Whether he can escape from the Taiqing Sect alive after seven years depends on whether he can get enough fragments of the Book of Heaven to compete with the Taiqing Sect.

After making up his mind, Nanfeng looked at Zhuge Chanjuan and said, "I have a very good personal relationship with the old mage from the Yuqing Sect's Scripture Pavilion. I want to go to the Yuqing Sect and ask him to help translate the tripod inscriptions on the stone gate."

"You have a bad relationship with Long Yunzi. If you go to the Yuqing Sect, you are throwing yourself into a trap. You should wait for news about the fat man. Maybe someone in Tuhun knows the Ding Wen." Zhuge Chanjuan said.

"That will delay a lot of time." Nanfeng shook his head.

"In short, I don't agree with you going to Yuqing Sect. It's too dangerous. There are so many masters there. Even if the Eighth Master carries you, you may not be able to escape unscathed." Zhuge Chanjuan said.

"We can't just wait here." Nanfeng sighed.

Zhuge Chanjuan came over and sat down next to Nanfeng, "You can look elsewhere first. Maybe there will be a place similar to Taiyi Mountain. You can get it without much trouble."

Nanfeng thought about it and felt that what Zhuge Chanjuan said was reasonable, so he took out the deerskin map and spread it out to check. The Taiwu Mountain where the two of them were currently located was the fourth of the nine locations, and there were one, two, and three locations to the north. , there are 6783 places to the south, 123 are all in the north of the Yangtze River, and 678 are all in the south of the Yangtze River.

"We are here now," Nanfeng pointed at the map, "Where did you say we were going?"

"I don't have any ideas. I'll listen to you." Zhuge Chanjuan said.

"Let's go north. If we don't delay on the way, we can make a round trip in three days. It's just that it's hard work, Master Ba, but it will get colder as we go north." Nanfeng said.

Zhuge Chanjuan nodded in agreement, "It's very difficult for Mr. Ba to carry us two, so I won't go with you. You can go by yourself. I'll stay here."

"That's fine, but it's not safe here. Don't live here. You go to Tuhun to find a fat man." Nanfeng said. At this time, Long Yunzi and Li Chaozong were both looking for the whereabouts of the Book of Heaven. If Zhuge Chanjuan met them, they would very dangerous.

"Okay, get on your way quickly. If it's not within easy reach, don't force it. Come back as soon as possible." Zhuge Chanjuan said.

Nanfeng nodded, took the baggage, bundled the bed blanket, called Master Ba, and took off towards the north.

During this period of time, he had been sleeping in the open air, and Ba Ye had lost a lot of weight, but he had made great progress in fluttering his wings. After taking off, he immediately climbed high, higher than the clouds, to avoid the cold air currents below.

When we set out at Chenshi, it snowed at noon, and there was a vast expanse of white below. Even above the clouds, the biting cold from the south wind was unbearable. In desperation, we had no choice but to instruct Ba Ye to find a place to escape the snow in the mountains.

For a while, there was no cave to hide in, so he could only hide under a wind-sheltered cliff. Nanfeng always carried the Longwei short bow with him. He went out to hunt a spotted deer and came back to feed Ba Ye.

While Ba Ye was eating, Nanfeng cut off deer skin to wrap his calves. These parts were not covered with feathers and would be very cold when exposed to ice and snow.

He originally only wrapped Ba Ye's legs, but perhaps because it felt so comfortable, Ba Ye raised his paws again and gestured to wrap his paws as well.

Nanfeng complied with Lai Ba Ye's request and carefully wrapped its paws, leaving a small hole at the front so that it could grasp it freely.

After wrapping his paws, Ba Ye spread his wings again. Nanfeng understood and untied the blanket and tied it under Ba Ye's armpits.

The close relationship comes from the act of being close. He was very grateful to Nanfeng for taking care of Master Ba and gave him a piece of deer liver. This is his favorite food and it thinks it is a good thing.

Before Nanfeng could respond, he suddenly noticed several giant shadows appearing in the sky. Due to the strong wind and snow, he couldn't see clearly. He could only confirm that they were a few huge birds, and there was a faint flash of purple air.

When Nanfeng raised his head and looked up, Ba Ye also tilted his head and looked up. When those giant shadows flashed past from north to south, the "two people" looked away and looked at each other.

"What?" Nanfeng said to himself.

Naturally, Master Ba would not answer the question, but took the opportunity to swallow the piece of deer liver in his mouth.

Nanfeng glanced at Master Ba with disdain. This guy was just showing off, but he wasn't actually willing to give it.

At this moment, several more figures appeared in the sky. This time, they were human figures. Seven or eight of them flashed past the cliff where they were, and two of them even landed on the cliff to use their strength.

This time Nanfeng saw very clearly that these people were all wearing Taoist robes, and they were all purple energy masters. The Taoist robes of the three sects were roughly similar, but slightly different. The two people who had landed on the top of the cliff to borrow strength were both wearing Taoist robes of the Shangqing Sect.

This place is located on the western border of the Western Wei Dynasty, and the Shangqing Sect's sphere of influence is in the Eastern Wei Dynasty. How could they appear here.

With doubts in his heart, Nanfeng stood up straight, jumped up to the top of the cliff and looked southward. At this time, the group was already five miles away and was still continuing southward.

The Taoists were very close to the birds in front of them. It looked like they were following the birds rather than chasing them. There are heterogeneous Taoists in the Shangqing Sect, and the first birds to go there are most likely members of the heterogeneous sect within the sect.

Just when he was wondering why so many masters of the Supreme Purity appeared here, he found that the group of Taoists and the birds in front suddenly disappeared. Of course, they did not really disappear, but fell into a group of people not far to the south. In the mountains.

The group of Taoists did not stay below for long. They reappeared after a while and continued southward despite the wind and snow.

After everyone walked away, Nanfeng called Master Ba out and came to the sky above the area where everyone had stayed. Below was a very high mountain peak. There was a large cave on the mountainside, which ran from north to south.

He had encountered similar caves before, and there was also one in the south of Taiwu Mountain, where the three of them had rested.

At this time, the group of Taoists had gone far away and was almost invisible. However, judging from the movement trajectory of the people, they were moving southward following the direction of the mountain, not in a straight line.

The previous through-hole cave and the cave here are both located on the Dragon Vein. If there are similar caves, the Shangqing Sect can follow these caves to find all the places where the Tortoise Shell Heavenly Book is hidden.

The people from Shangqing came from the north, and it is very likely that they have discovered the three places in the north.

After thinking anxiously, Nanfeng made a decision, "Turn around and go back..."
