In a blink of an eye, it was the day of departure.
Early in the morning, Qin Yun left the Qin Mansion and rode to the Sheriff's Mansion.
"Everyone."
The county sheriff received Yi Xiao, Qin Yun and Jia Huairen's master and servant in the main hall.
"The Millennium Ice Jade Fruit is related to the life and death of this old man." The governor said solemnly, "For this trip, please do your best to gather the spiritual fruit. If it succeeds, this old man will never forget your kindness."
"Uncle Wen, we promised, we will naturally do our best." Yi Xiao said.
"The governor is waiting for the good news." Qin Yun also said.
"This spirit fruit, I will definitely fetch it for the sheriff." Jia Huairen also said confidently.
There is a waiter next to him holding a plate with five bronze wine glasses on which the wine has been poured.
The sheriff took a glass of wine.
Yi Xiao, Qin Yun, Jia Huairen, and the monster's old servant Uncle Qian also each took a glass of wine.
"After going to Cangya Mountain, you all follow Yi Xiao's orders and don't make up your own mind. I will rush to the foot of Cangya Mountain tomorrow, and I will wait for you at the foot of the mountain." The governor raised his glass, "Anyway, everything is up to you Everyone."
Yi Xiao, Qin Yun and the other four also raised their glasses.
Let's drink up the wine together.
"Uncle Wen, take your leave." After Yi Xiao finished speaking, he left the hall, and all four of them got on their horses and left the Sheriff's Mansion quickly.
The sheriff watched them leave from a distance.
"Father, you will definitely get the Millennium Bingyu Fruit." Wen Chong also stood beside his father and said in a low voice.
…
"Da da da."
After Qin Yun and the others left Guangling County City, they headed north along the official road, galloping with horseshoes at a fast speed.
If the county is densely populated and the common people want to live in a safer city, even the price of residential buildings is extremely high. There are few people outside the city, and there is often no one in sight for a long time, and occasionally a village is a big village with thousands of people! Because the common people gather enough, it is possible to form a strong enough village guard group, equipped with a large number of bows and crossbows to deter some little monsters.
In addition, the inspection department can come to support at any time, so that the human race can survive outside the city.
If we talk about the city, the imperial court occupies absolute control.
Outside the city, the world is divided between humans and monsters!
"The front is Yu'an County." At noon, Qin Yun and the others arrived at Yu'an County without encountering any danger along the way. Because the number of monsters is rare compared with the human race, it is not so easy to encounter monsters.
"Cangya Mountain is more than twenty miles west of Yu'an County." Yi Xiao said, "Let's stay in Yu'an County for one night first, and then enter the mountain tomorrow morning."
"Listen to Miss Yi Xiao." Jia Huairen said repeatedly.
He was also very helpless, when Yi Xiao was in the Sheriff's Mansion a few days ago, he also visited and wanted to see her often. However, Miss Yi Xiao has been in seclusion for a long time and does not see any visitors!
Entering the city, I chose a good inn and stayed there.
*****
Summer nights are cool, but there are many mosquitoes.
Qin Yun sat alone on the roof of the inn, drinking wine. It was a rare day when he didn't practice his natal flying sword, and he couldn't fall asleep, so he asked the shopkeeper to get a jug of wine, and drank it slowly.
"Huh." A figure floated down on the roof, like a fairy descending.
"Brother Qin stays up so late." Yi Xiao sat aside and asked with a smile, "Thinking about going to the mountains tomorrow?"
"It's just to appreciate the night, no, now there are beautiful scenery, good wine, and Miss Yi as company. If I go to sleep earlier, there will be such a good thing." Qin Yun laughed.
Yi Xiao pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't drink alone, give me a taste."
"Here." Qin Yun threw it away.
Yi Xiao took it, tilted his head up from the jug's spout, and poured the wine down. He gulped down a big gulp, but choked and coughed twice, wiping the wine from the corner of his mouth.
"Do you usually drink less?" Qin Yun asked upon seeing this.
"Usually in the sect, the master is strict." Yi Xiao said briefly, and then said, "By the way, Brother Qin, when we go to Cangya Mountain this time, Jia Huairen's monster servant is still useful, although he is very helpful to Jia. My family is very loyal, but it is a monster after all, if something is wrong, no matter if it is you or me, we can directly get rid of him."
"There are many monsters in Cangya Mountain. If he plots against us, he will naturally get rid of them." Qin Yun nodded, "The Lord Magistrate also said, everything is up to you this time, and you can do whatever you want."
"That's because Uncle Wen trusts me." Yi Xiao said with a smile, "In terms of experience, Brother Qin is much richer than me. Please give Brother Qin some pointers, so that you can be more confident in picking the spiritual fruit."
"There's nothing to say." Qin Yun said.
"Brother Qin, please say a few words, I don't know what to do this time." Yi Xiao urged.
Qin Yun said: "There is no need to worry. The key to picking spiritual fruits is that you must hide your strength at the beginning. It is best not to reveal your whereabouts and quietly sneak into the place where the thousand-year-old ice jade fruit is. If you are really exposed, you can only expose part of it. Strength, so that the monsters do not feel too much threat, and must not make the monsters feel unstoppable and destroy the spirit fruit."
"As soon as the spirit fruit is ripe, it is natural to snatch the fruit immediately." Qin Yun said, "The grabbing of the fruit must be done quickly, and it is better to be more secretive, because there must be monsters guarding the side of the spirit fruit. If they can't stop them, I'm afraid it will ruin the fruit."
"As for getting the fruit, then hurry down the mountain and run for your life." Qin Yun said, "Because if you get the fruit, you will surely startle the monsters, and they will go crazy."
Yi Xiao listened and nodded: "I think so too."
"The process is simple, but when you do it, you have to be bold and careful, and you have to be straightforward." Qin Yun said, "When you encounter some emergencies, you can make a temporary response. By the way, do monsters know when the spirit fruit is ripe?"
"The Millennium Ice Jade Fruit used to mature once every hundred years, and it took ten times for the Millennium Ice Jade Fruit to mature. Because the time interval is too long, it is impossible for the monsters to figure out when it will mature, which day and which hour it will be." Yi Xiao He said, "Uncle Wen also invited someone who is good at deduction to deduce it in detail, so that he can confirm that when the thousand-year-old ice jade fruit matures, it will be tomorrow's time."
Qin Yun nodded: "That's good. The monsters don't know the exact day and time. They only know about one or two months. Then we can be sure."
"If the monster knows when the spirit fruit is ripe, it will be difficult for us to pick it up secretly." Yi Xiao said with a smile, "As for tomorrow, brother Qin Yun will ask for your help."
"It's also helping each other." Qin Yun said, "I'm good at close combat, but I'm not good at long range attacks."
"I'm just the opposite. I'm not good at melee combat." Yi Xiao smiled. Those who practice magic usually try to keep a distance from monsters, and monsters are generally very strong in melee combat! It is indeed rare for Qin Yun to kill monsters in close combat.
…
Early the next morning, the sky was very bright.
Qin Yun and the others left the inn immediately, and left Yu'an County just as the gate of the county opened, heading for Cangya Mountain.
"Cangya Mountain."
In just over twenty miles, I rode my horse and galloped, and arrived soon.
"The highest mountain in Guangling County." Qin Yun looked up. The mountain was majestic, and the height of the mountain even entered the clouds. He didn't know how many monsters were hidden in this mountain.
The four of them dismounted and tied the horses in a nearby forest.
"Everyone."
Yi Xiao looked at Qin Yun, Jia Huairen, and the monster servant Uncle Qian, "Ugly words come first, and everything will be done according to the previous agreement. This time we enter the mountain, we must try our best not to disturb any monsters. If anyone is too careless Or to disturb the monsters on purpose. Just don't blame me for being ungrateful under the Thunder of the Five Elements." After saying these words, Yi Xiao's eyes flashed with thunder.
Jia Huairen couldn't help feeling afraid, and said: "Don't worry, Miss Yi, what do you say, what should we do."
"Everything is up to Miss Yi." Uncle Qian, the old monster servant, also said, even the old servant, Uncle Qian, did not have the confidence to resist the famous Thunder of the Five Elements.
"The disciples of the top schools are indeed extraordinary." Qin Yun sighed secretly when he saw this.
"Go, enter the mountain." Yi Xiao gave an order.
The four of them went up the mountain quietly, even the weakest Jia Huairen also knocked on the fairy gate, and it was easy to cross the mountain.
