Chapter 94: Back To Tianmu Mountain
Chapter 94 Return to Tianmu Mountain
Inscription: The name of the volume, derived from the Nalan word, if life is only as first seen. Not to commemorate the love of first love, but to miss the lost youth. Some things, once in the past, can’t be turned back. In this volume, the protagonist will recall some past events and cut off some ties. In fact, the name of the volume is derived from a scene, and it emerges naturally. I hope that when everyone sees this scene, they will suddenly realize that it is so. That is the author’s success.
**************************************************** **
After saying goodbye to Ming Wuliang, Gu Yan flew on his qi, all the way to the south, to the ferry head of Xuanshui, then took a flat boat and continued southward along the North Sea. It took a full half a year to travel all the way, tens of thousands of miles south, and finally reached the border of Yue.
When she set foot on the land of Yueguo again, and then on the seashore where she grew up as a child, she couldn’t help but feel a little lost. She has been away from here for nearly seventeen years, accounting for more than half of her life.
Gu Yan brushed the broken hair in front of her forehead with her hand, tossed away those chaotic thoughts, and then walked slowly in the direction of the deserted village. Looking from a distance, I can already see some smoke rising from the kitchen. Is there any trace of people here?
Sure enough, on the former site of the deserted village, some people began to gather again. Although it is not as prosperous as it was before, there is already a faint village scene. The low tide reflected the setting sun, and there were several children playing happily at the entrance of the village. Men carried forks and dragged fishing nets. When they returned in twos and threes, wives and daughters greeted them.
Gu Yan suddenly seemed to have returned to the past, she calmed her mind and walked inside.
Some people still live in those old houses, while others have built new ones. No one lives in Gu Yan’s house, but it seems to have been cleaned. Gu Yan walked in slowly, and seeing that the arrangement inside was the same as before, she faced the main hall and bowed respectfully three times.
At this moment, there was the sound of stumbling footsteps under the door. An old woman walked in with a big broom. She saw her figure and said in surprise, “Who are you?”
Gu Yan showed her a slight smile: “I… am a relative of this family, do you often help clean the old house?”
When the old woman saw a young girl in Tsing Yi, her expression was calm and picturesque, she thanked her with a smile, and hurriedly waved her hands and said, “It’s a pity to see that this place is so good, it’s a waste. I don’t dare to be a girl to say thank you. She showed a somewhat embarrassed look again. “Children sometimes come to play here. I’m really sorry for disturbing you.”
Gu Yan waved her hand, “Keeping the old residence here is just a thought, why should I care?” She touched her waist, took out two golden beads, thought about it, and then took out a jade bottle, He handed it to the old woman and said, “Aunt Domeng takes care of the old residence of the ancestors. This is a thank you.” After she finished speaking, she looked back and stomped her feet lightly, and the purple lotus pedestal took her up. Go and disappear in an instant.
The old woman watched Gu Yan ascend to the sky in surprise, and slowly disappeared. She couldn’t help but knelt to the ground, clasped her head toward the sky, and shouted, “Immortal! Immortal!”
Gu Yan rode the purple lotus platform, and after flying over the fishing village, he did not stop, and went straight to Tianmu Mountain. She gave the old woman two golden beads, and kept a bottle of nourishing qi pills, so that she could strengthen her body and prolong her life. To show the miracles of the immortals again, it is just to thank her for the kindness of cleaning her old house in the past few years. Moreover, there is her word of mouth, so that the old house will not be taken by others.
After cooking these, she will go to Qingyun Mountain again, and re-enter Hongye Valley to fulfill the previous appointment with Gu Hongye that day.
The purple lotus pedestal at her feet was transformed by her with the purple fire. At that time, I couldn’t help but feel a little tired. It seems that after the trip to Qingyun Mountain, it is necessary to look for a flying instrument as soon as possible.
She is located at the southern foot of Tianmu Mountain, and Qingyun Mountain is in the northwest of Tianmu Mountain and south of Yunyang City. If you want to fly directly to Qingyun Mountain, you have to cross Tianmu Mountain, which is disrespectful to the three major sects in Tianmu Mountain. It is better to keep a low profile for a loose cultivator like her.
Gu Yan walked slowly along the southern foot of Tianmu Mountain. Looking at most of the familiar scenery, it is not interesting. But as she walked slowly, she felt that something was wrong.
In the past, most of the people in Tianmu Mountain were cultivators. Although it was not as continuous as the towns in the mortal world, there were still many people. But in today’s Tianmu Mountain, it is quiet and uninhabited. She raised her head and glanced at the Tianmu Mountain, where the three major sects each had their place. The Zhushan Sect is in the north, Taiyimen is in the middle, and Fuyumen occupies the southern foot. This place is so secluded, could it be that something happened to Fuyumen?
At this moment, her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she moved to the side and said, “Who is on the side, come out!”
A female cultivator appeared in the forest not far away. She was not tall, and she seemed to be just a little girl. She took a few steps forward, bowed to Gu Yan, and said, “Disciple of Fuyu Sect, see senior. May I ask if senior came to visit friends in Tianmu Mountain?”
Gu Yan saw that she was a female cultivator on the tenth level of Qi Refining, and nodded slightly, “I used to study Taoism in Tianmu Mountain, and this time I came back to visit an old friend. Is this where your family is located? Why is there no one?”
The man thought that Gu Yan was not malicious, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: “Because my Fuyumen is holding a trial conference, most of the loose cultivators here are attending the conference, and there are also some seniors from other sects. Go to watch the ceremony, if seniors are interested, why not go to see it together?”
Gu Yan let out a “Yeah”, the trial meeting was something she had heard of when she first entered Tianmu Mountain. Generally held by the three major sects in turn, after a group of people is selected, they will go to each sect to conduct separate competitions according to their wishes. Sometimes, some senior monks in the sect will also choose disciples. She asked: “Is the trial conference over, now is your door’s small election?”
The female cultivator said “Yeah”, “Senior is very familiar with the rules of Tianmu Mountain. There were 527 participants in this trial meeting. After the trial, a total of 109 people entered the primary election. A total of thirty-seven people have chosen my Fuyumen. In the end, four disciples will be selected to join my Fuyumen as disciples.”
Gu Yan made an “oh”, choosing 4 out of 37, this elimination rate is not low. Ever since she arrived at Tianmu Mountain, she had always heard people talk about the Trial Conference, but she had never seen it with her own eyes. This time it was the right time, but she didn’t want to miss it, so she nodded slightly and said, “Please lead the way.”
The little girl also said respectfully: “I don’t dare to do it.” After that, she moved on. Gu Yan met her and suddenly felt that she looked familiar, “Wait, you…is your surname Feng?”
The little girl said in surprise, “Junior Feng Moqiang, have you ever met my senior?”
Gu Yan’s expression was a little leisurely. She seemed to have returned to the period of the youthful youth. She and her sixth brother Gu Mingze, tenth brother Gu Moyan, and the most funny big head Fang Ming, four people went to visit the square market in Tianmu Mountain. Fang Ming sold the spirit beast to a small shop called “Jiyuxuan”, which was opened by a female disciple of Fuyumen. The person in charge of the business in the shop was Feng Moqiang in front of him.
After not seeing her for more than ten years, she has also steadily advanced to the tenth level of Qi Refining. Feng Moqiang and Gu Yan only knew one thing, so naturally they couldn’t remember it, and looked at the senior who established the foundation in front of him with a strange look.
Gu Yan waved his hand, “I just remembered some past events, you lead the way.”
Feng Moqiang responded and led Gu Yan forward, crossing several mountains, and saw the Floating Jade Peak in front of him soaring into the clouds. There was a large open space in front of the peak, which was divided into several areas by the use of spiritual power, and there was a viewing area on the side. Feng Moqiang pointed to the tallest one in the middle and said, “The elders of this sect are all there. The two are the seniors from Taiyimen and Zhushan Sect who came to watch the ceremony. The rest of the loose cultivators are on both sides.” After speaking, he led Gu Yan to sit on the high platform on the left.
Gu Yan looked down, the field was divided into six areas, and each area had two monks competing. At this time, Feng Moqiang had already left the stage, and there were two other disciples on the stage.
There are not many people on this high platform, including Gu Yan, there are only four or five sparsely, all of them are cultivation bases in the early stage of foundation establishment. Gu Yan took a look. If you don’t count the three major sects, there are probably only about 20 foundation-building cultivators present, and none of them have reached the late stage of foundation-building. It seems that Yueguo’s immortal cultivation world is more than Luodi Come, it will be much more withered.
The monks on the same stage seemed to be indifferent. They just looked down the stage, but they didn’t mean to talk to each other, and Gu Yan was not interested in taking the initiative to talk to them. She summoned a serving disciple and asked, “How far has the small election progressed?”
That disciple was very young, probably only in his teens, he was only at the second and third levels of Qi Refining, he respected the Foundation Establishment cultivator very much, and respectfully replied: “It’s still in the stage of mutual competition, according to the rules, those who participate in the competition will be the ones who take part in the competition. The monks competed with each other, the loser was put into the loser’s group, and the loser was eliminated. Finally, four disciples were determined as the winners, who would enter the Fuyumen, and then the master would assign them to where they would be disciples. .”
Gu Yan nodded and looked down. She has traveled all over the world over the years, and she has seen far more than before. Watching these monks, who are usually at the seventh or eighth level of Qi refining, feel a little dull about her who has experienced countless life-and-death struggles.
The battle of the qi refining monks is nothing more than the use of talismans and spiritual tools. Some pills from wealthy families can be used casually, and naturally they have the upper hand over others. Like there is a woman in white below. She is not very experienced in fighting, but she has a wide variety of spiritual tools in her hands. When she is defeated, she throws out a lot of talismans. The money was put into his mouth, and he even passed several levels, and he would soon enter the last eight.
Gu Yan couldn’t help shaking his head. He must be a disciple of a big family. At this moment, a voice came from the side, “That’s the grandniece of Fairy Zeng from Fuyumen. She also came to participate in the competition this time. They said that she already has a place among the last four disciples.”
A new volume has begun, a new journey, a new starting point, can I ask for a new ticket…
