ask the mirror

Chapter 5 Calculation (this chapter is free)

Because of its quietness, it is sensitive.I don't know how long it took, Yu Ciben was in a trance, suddenly there was a feeling in his heart, his thoughts moved slightly, the scene of bright moon and colorful clouds disappeared spontaneously, and he also opened his eyes.

This set of thinking method was taught by the Chiyin goddess when Yu Ci was young. It is called "Nine Palaces and Moonlight is Really Wonderful Method", and there is another name called "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon". As a cloud, when you think about it, you can unite your spirit and energy, rub the top and penetrate the veins, and use this as the way to improve.

There is nothing surprising about such a method, but it is easy to learn, and the number of ways can be regarded as moderate and peaceful.Yu Ci has been intensively cultivating for twelve years, and has reached the stage of synergy between spirit and energy. She has opened her spiritual aperture and can constantly nourish the soul with true energy, which can be regarded as an achievement.

It's just that now he is not in the mood to lament his own cultivation.Because at this time outside the house, there were some people approaching, purely by the smell, Yu Ci knew that these people were not from Xuan Qing's group, but he didn't know what their thoughts were.

He put the bronze mirror in his sleeve, held the long sword in his hand, and adjusted his posture slightly so as to remain unchanged and respond to all changes.

Wait for a while, there are already people outside the house, but no one enters the house. Instead, someone knocked on the door frame through the main door that has no door panel: "Friends inside, we are medicine pickers who went to the Rift Valley. Is it convenient?"

Yu Cilue let out a sigh of relief, let go of the sword, and then laughed loudly: "In the wilderness, there is no one who comes first, please come in."

A straightforward and heroic attitude is undoubtedly the best way to alleviate other people's doubts. This night, it became lively again.

There is no sun and moon in the mountains, and it depends on the changes of the weather to know the clues.

In the blink of an eye, it is already summer, and the mountains are full of flowers, and the greenery immediately permeates almost every corner.It's just that on the peaks of the eastern mountains in the Tianrift Valley, there is still snow and ice and rocks.

Yu Ci stood on the edge of the cliff, looking far into the distance, all he could see was a vast expanse of clouds without seeing the edge.There is also the sound of the wind, howling like the sound of the sea tide, pushing the clouds and mist, and slapping the rock wall under the feet, as if to drag the people on the cliff into the boundless sea of ​​clouds.

Could this be the boundary of heaven and earth?

Knowing that this thought is absurd, Yu Ci still can't help thinking like this.Because from where he stood, the north and south stretched thousands of miles each, and they all looked like this, and the front seemed to be endless.This is what he measured with his own legs and feet for several months, and it is absolutely true.

Although this section of boundless cliffs has uneven terrain, it is as smooth as a mirror in a vast area that is thousands of miles long, like a sword from a god splitting the land in half.

"Heavenly Rift Valley, Heavenly Rift Valley... The springs come out of the river to form a valley. I don't know if one day, when the sea of ​​clouds dissipates, I can see the whole picture of this valley clearly?"

It was a normal thought, but during this period of time, he went up and down the boundless cliff hundreds of times, and no matter the weather was cloudy or sunny, he had never seen the sea of ​​clouds disperse.

It has been five months since Yu Ci arrived in Tianrift Valley. During these days, he has been busy every day, and he hardly has a moment of leisure.With the same experience as Yu Ci, there are tens of thousands of 'medicine' pickers nearby. They also came for the shrimp grass, or to be more precise, they came for the handsome reward promised by the White Sun Mansion.

The White Sun Mansion is the first-class powerful force in the Cliff City, an important town in the Duanjie Mountains. It firmly controls the vast area within a thousand li radius of the Cliff City. It is many times stronger than the Shuangxian Sect that Yu Ci treated.

Ten years ago, the White Sun Mansion released a long-term mission: regardless of the number of years and quantity, unlimited purchase of the unique shrimp grass in the Tianrift Valley, and set up a heavy reward for it.

The remuneration includes gold and silver, real estate, treasures, and elixir, which infinitely stimulated the dreams of people of all colors around them to get rich.In the past ten years, countless "herb pickers", rivers and lakes and even ordinary people have flocked to the surrounding area of ​​Tianrift Valley, regardless of the height of the mountains and the bottomless abyss, climbing up and down the cliffs, in order to get the treasure in their hearts, they bet their own 'life.

Yu Ci can be regarded as one of them. He wandered to the Cliff City half a year ago, and he immediately fell in love with the reward promised by the White Sun Mansion, which is a unique sword made by the craftsman in the mansion: the Sanyang Talisman Sword.This sword has both the strengths of talisman and weapon making, its power is still second, and the more precious thing is its formation idea, which may be an excellent reference for Yu Ci's progress of talisman, which has fallen into a bottleneck.

In exchange for a Sanyang Talisman Sword, a thousand Shrimp Silk Grasses are needed.

So Yu Ci also joined the ranks of the 'medicine' army.It is more than [-] miles from the cliff city to here, and it took a full month to walk on the road, and it took another five months to search for 'medicine' and gather 'medicine'. It is conceivable that there must be longer days to spend here.

"A thousand plants... may not be completed before winter arrives."

Swiping away these miscellaneous thoughts, Yu Cilue calmed down, and took another step towards the edge of the cliff. Facing the oncoming gust of wind, he closed his eyes slightly, cut off his mouth, nose and breathing, and the true energy in his body immediately circulated spontaneously, slowly Adjusting the ups and downs of qi and blood, when the state of the whole body reached a higher level, he suddenly stretched out his hand, touched it in the void, and then wiped it in front of his nose, and the sealed nasal orifice was also opened at this time.

This is the Catch the Wind Technique, a miscellaneous knowledge that Yu Ci mastered when he was wandering around.Drawn by the Catching Wind Technique, various smells penetrated in, and were immediately sorted by his thoughts, like panning sand for gold, and there was a result in a blink of an eye.Yu Ci opened his eyes and grinned: "I'm lucky today."

With a smile, he jumped down.

The sky rift valley is formed by the tearing of the heavenly force, the elders cannot see the end, and the deep ones cannot see the bottom.Yu Ci didn't find the beginning and end of the valley, so naturally he couldn't find out the depth of the valley.He jumped off the edge of the cliff, and in a blink of an eye, he passed through the clouds and mist, and the strange shadows of branches and rocks growing between the cliffs flowed past him.

With a little help from various obstacles, Yu Ci's descending speed became slower and slower, and finally caught sight of a rocky beam protruding from the cliff, and landed lightly on it.Here, the unique aroma of the asparagus is getting stronger and stronger, but it will take a while to confirm the exact location through the thick fog.

After staying on the stone beam for less than a quarter of an hour, the surrounding fog did not show any signs of dissipating, but Yu Ci had already locked on the target, and without hesitation, he exerted strength with his calf, and shot his body into the thick fog to the side like an arrow. go.

Borrowing strength from the cliff, he swept across a distance of seven feet in a blink of an eye. As he predicted, there were no obstacles in the middle. In the mist, the image of the giant pine leaning in the gap between the rocks became clearer and clearer. Yu Ci leaned against the rock. The wall slides up and lands gently on the roots of the tree, with the ease of a cat.

At the same time as it fell, a strong wind blew in the canyon, and the strong wind made the giant pine creak and creak, and also made the surrounding fog flow quickly.

Yu Ci had enough eyesight to see through the thinning fog barrier, and was very pleased to see that at the front of the giant pine trunk, within the layers of pine branches, there were dozens of fine hair-like shadows floating, rising and falling from time to time. , it seems that it will be torn apart by the strong wind in the next moment, but more of them are still wrapped around the trunk and branches.

That is the shrimp grass.
