Chapter 22 Ning'an Jurisdiction(1/2)
He had not mentioned the matter of Shenmu Mountain to Xiao Zhan before, although he had thought about it before. After all, Xiao Zhan was also a good helper to him.
However, Shinto matters were very involved, so due to certain considerations at the time, the matter was not revealed.
But now that I saw the army of the Great Xia Dynasty, I thought that even if he didn't say it, the imperial court would have sent someone.
"That's right, not to mention that the Great Xia Dynasty was the one who planned the Shenmu Mountain in the first place. The Shenmu Secret Realm itself is not to be missed." Thinking of this, Zhou Yu did not pursue the matter further, and stepped into it in one step.
Within the cyan ripple portal that forms the secret realm.
Gradually, the figure disappeared.
Seeing Yunlu and his party disappear at the entrance of the valley, the leaders of various sects outside the valley suddenly had deep thoughts in their eyes.
The Yunlu Immortal Sect has always had female disciples, and it is rare to see male disciples. Even if they have joined hands with others, they will never be like that person just now.
They seem to be keeping a distance, but there is no clear-cut alienation.
"This person can still gain Yunlu's trust after the Xuanmumen betrayal happened in Yunlu Immortal Sect. He is definitely an extraordinary person."
"However, now that the disciples of the Yunlu Immortal Sect have entered, it seems that Xuanmumen cannot get out without any disciples."
"Instead of thinking about the mysterious wooden door, let's guess whether there will be any changes in the secret realm of the sacred tree this time. It's okay to just sit around."
"good."
…
Zhou Yu didn't know much about what happened outside the valley, so naturally he didn't care about it.
However, when he stepped into the cyan rippled portal, and as he walked, after the brief confusion in his mind passed, he was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.
Probably because what appeared in front of him at this time was definitely not what Mu Ying and others had told him before. It seemed to be unchanged, but in fact it was already in the shape of a towering forest.
On the contrary, it is a place that is not rich in spiritual energy, but is surrounded by mountains and rivers, surrounded by mountains on two sides, and in the valley below the mountains, there is a town that is not too big or too small.
And beside him, there was still the slightest shadow of someone from the Yunlu Immortal Sect.
"Mu Ying and the others will never deceive me about the secret realm of the sacred tree, but what they see in front of them is extremely real. It seems that there has been a change in the secret realm of the sacred tree." Looking at the town at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Yu's expression
His eyes suddenly narrowed.
Previously, I heard from Luo Ziling and Mu Ying that if there is the Qi of Yimu, it will cause changes in the secret realm of Shenmu, allowing people to enter deeper secret realms and experience different tests.
This was also the reason why they suspected that Ren Qingping would attack them secretly.
And this matter is more or less news that Yun Mengze knows nothing about the secret realm of the sacred tree, but secretly, it is known to many sects.
It's just that Yimu's Qi is hard to find. This kind of special testing place cannot be entered without great opportunity.
But even if there is the Qi of Yimu, the person who holds it will only open it to those who hold the Qi of Yimu after finding the key to the secret realm of the sacred tree. It will never be done directly like this.
"According to the past experience of the Yunlu Immortal Sect, after entering the Mystic Realm of the Divine Tree, most people start from the foot of the mountain to search for elixirs. After finding something with strong wood power, they can only enter the depths of the secret realm after finding a specific place;
But the current scene is completely different from the description. No matter what, there has never been such a sudden scene as before." Zhou Yu frowned and looked around.
The next moment, a crisp sword cry sounded from behind him, and the Qingming Sword roared into the air.
Bang!
A large bluestone three feet away in front of him suddenly fell into pieces, with a lot of gravel splattering in all directions.
Looking at the sword marks on the big bluestone, as well as the debris splashing to the ground, the soil being dented by the impact, and the grass breaking, a look of deep thought suddenly appeared on Zhou Yu's face.
"It's so real that it's not like ordinary illusions. This secret realm of the sacred tree is really magical. I don't know if it's the change caused by the energy of Yimu in Ren Qingping's hand, or if it's something done by the Rebirth Cult."
"Now that you've arrived, make peace with it. Go to that town first. It's within the Mystic Tree Realm after all. Since it's a place where many people have a chance, you can find some rules, unless the Shenmu Secret Realm is controlled by others."
…
"Baozi, Baozi, the newly released meat buns, they cost two cents each, they have lots of skin and plenty of stuffing!"
"We sell vegetables, Chinese cabbage just picked from the field."
As soon as Fang stepped into this small town in Ning'an, he was immediately greeted by the lively sounds of hawking, and there were even more people walking on the street, full of vitality.
Zhou Yu used his spiritual sense to carefully observe the people in the town. They were completely real people. No matter whether it was the flesh and blood meridians or the vitality of the physical body, there was no fraud.
If Zhou Yu hadn't known that he had entered from the Shenmu Mountain in Yunmengze, he might have thought that this was an ordinary town.
But even so, no matter how many times he observes, there will be no other conclusion at all except that everyone here is real.
"I know it may be an illusion, but I can't tell the truth... Hmm." Just as Zhou Yu sighed, his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Knowing that it may be an illusion, but unable to tell the truth, isn't this situation the same as when I met the evil cultivator who stole Wang Shenghaoran's righteousness?" Zhou Yu's eyes suddenly narrowed, and when he looked at the town in front of him,
Suddenly a sense of enlightenment arose in my heart.
That day, when he, Xiao Zhan and Monk Miaoshan fought together against the evildoer, the evildoer initially transformed into a golden Buddha. They knew that the evildoer was fake, but no matter what they felt or knew, they could not disfigure him.
"This Ning'an Town is no larger than a thousand feet in diameter, but the people and scenery inside are all lifelike, without any strangeness. They are much better than the golden Buddha back then."
"It took three people to work together to destroy the golden Buddha with false Taoist foundation, let alone me now." Thinking of this, Zhou Yu felt awe-inspiring.
He understood that the town in front of him could not be destroyed by brute force, and he even had a feeling that even if there were ruthless people who wanted to kill this town for an opportunity, they might not be able to pass it.
On the contrary, in the process of its powerful destruction, it cannot be said that the method is too cruel, and it will have the power of collapse.
"To pass this test, it seems that the only way is to join the world and find opportunities, or to refining the heart, or?" After thinking about it, Zhou Yu smiled freely, carried the Qingming Sword on his back, and immediately walked towards a noodle stall.
The owner of the noodle stall is an old man who seems to be in his fifties. He has a goatee and looks very kind. When he saw Zhou Yu sitting down, he immediately said kindly.
"Young hero, may I ask what you want to eat? The little old man has good offal here, as well as home-made pickled radish, and a bowl of Yangchun noodles. I guarantee that you will be satisfied."
"Let me have a bowl of Yangchun noodles and haggis, sir, and I can't forget the pickled radish." Zhou Yu suddenly said with a smile.
"Okay, please sit down first." After saying this, the father-in-law and his descendants began to make noodles.
After a while, a bowl of Yangchun noodles was served, paired with a layer of haggis floating in red oil and a plate of crisp pickled radish. Just the appearance of it made people appetite.
"Okay, this tastes strong enough." The noodles are surprisingly elastic in the mouth, and the soup seems to be quite complex. Zhou Yu, who had just taken a few bites, immediately praised it.
"That's right, Old Man Zhang's noodle shop has tickled the stomachs of so many people. I lost two meat buns, haha." The big man at the next table, who was also a cheerful person, laughed loudly.
"I, Liu Hu, have learned both skills in the martial arts school before. Judging from the young hero's talent, I guess he is also a person with a family background;
Although our town of Ning'an is small, it still has many wonderful features. If you are not in a hurry, you can stay here for a few more days and enjoy some delicious food." After saying that, Liu Hu put down his chopsticks and cupped his hands towards Zhou Yu, saying,
He looks like a gangster.
"Well, Liu Hu, please don't disturb my father-in-law's distinguished guests with such an abrupt tone." Old man Zhang on the side suddenly laughed and cursed after hearing these words, then his eyes fell on Zhou Yu and he said immediately.
"Young hero, don't blame me. Ever since he practiced a few moves, he has been particularly attracted to those wealthy people in the world. Although he is now a guardian, he still can't help but feel envious every time he sees martial arts people passing by. He has no ill intentions."
"No need to worry, I am also longing for the world, so I came out to travel this time. Besides, Brother Liu is right. After eating your bowl of noodles, I also want to try this Ning'an delicacy." Zhou Yu said with a smile.
.
Since I thought that this sudden challenge might be related to joining the world, there was no harm in simply becoming a martial artist.
Maybe other monks may think it's a drop in price, but it doesn't matter to him.
And whether it’s Yangchun noodles or haggis, they all taste delicious.
Although I knew it might be the formation of the magical realm of this sacred tree, after taking one bite, it warmed my stomach and left a lingering aftertaste on my tongue.
After eating, Zhou Yu chatted with Old Man Zhang and the big man named Liu for a few words, and then left.
In about two hours, he finished visiting this small town, which was only a thousand feet in radius, and then found an inn called Fulai to live in the town.
As for the silver, although most of it was left at Qingfengguan that day, Zhou Yu still kept some on his person, so he could use it as a tribute.
This stay lasted more than ten days.
"Young Master Zhou, are we still having haggis and noodles today?" Old man Zhang immediately shouted with a smile when he saw Zhou Yu approaching at the noodle stall.
"Don't forget the pickled radish." Zhou Yu chuckled.
"Okay, let me make it for you now. You can drink this bowl of noodle soup to warm your stomach first." After saying that, Old Man Zhang brought a bowl of steaming noodle soup and put it on the table.
Zhou Yu was not polite and started drinking it. Although the taste was bland, it was delicious.
For more than ten days, he lived like a real ordinary person in Ning'an Town. The more he lived in Ning'an Town, the more he felt that everything in front of him was real.
Zhou Yu also doubted whether his guess was wrong, but when he walked out of Ning'an Town and headed towards the mountains outside the town, he chose to return to this peaceful town.
Because when he tried to cross the mountains or the long river outside the town, once he reached a certain distance, a blue mist would arise.
The green mist is thin at the beginning, but as it continues to advance, it will become thicker. However, after a certain distance, it will return to the place where it was stepped out.
In this way, after several attempts, Zhou Yu completely gave up his thoughts and concentrated on waiting in this town.
Because facts have proven to him that he cannot break the legal domain that forms Ning'an Town.
"By the way, Uncle Zhang, why didn't you see Brother Liu here to eat noodles today? At this time, shouldn't he be chewing on the pickled radish?" Halfway through the meal, Zhou Yu looked at the place where Liu Hu used to sit, and his eyes suddenly
For a moment, he asked.
"I'm afraid this little brother will be disappointed. Liu Hu somehow offended Zhao Wei, the little bully in this town, three days ago, and had one of his legs broken for no reason. Now he is recuperating from his injury?" On the side, the same person said:
A regular customer of the noodle shop said immediately.
"What?" Zhou Yu paused in his heart and asked after hearing this.
"Hey, Liu Hu can't actually be blamed for this. It was the little bully Zhao Wei who fell in love with Widow Li, but he couldn't force it and wanted to use violence. In the end, Liu Hu somehow found out;
To be continued...
