Chapter 89 Eyeliner

The "lake water" sensed the stimulation first, the lake surface was turbulent, and the state of being in a trance was also turbulent.

During the turmoil, the lake water had already responded, and a vague image emerged from the heart lake.But at this moment, the mysterious state has reached the verge of collapse, and it is difficult for him to make further judgments.

Then, the five senses and six senses flowed back one after another. In this slightly chaotic situation, Yu Ci smelled a familiar smell in the relatively pure environment around him. This was an important condition for him to make a judgment.

The image of the visitor has been clearly presented, and at this moment, the state of trance has completely collapsed, and Yu Ci has returned to a mortal person, and the visions like "lake water" are no longer seen.

Finally, reason makes the final judgment, and the identity of the future person is determined.

After ten breaths, he heard the hurried footsteps of someone coming, and five breaths later, the person stopped at the door of his courtyard and knocked on the door.

"Mr. Yu, are you there?"

The one who used this name was obviously not Baoguang, and the voice was actually not very familiar.But Yu Ci had made up his mind, so he went to open the door.

Standing outside was a middle-aged Taoist priest, wearing a blue sermon robe, his whole body was ordinary, very inconspicuous, he belonged to the kind who could forget him at a glance.

However, Yu Ci called him very accurately:

"It turned out to be Daoist Xu Song. He is a rare visitor. Come in quickly."

Xu Song is a very ordinary Taoist priest in Zhixin Temple, with mediocre aptitude and mediocre cultivation.It has been ten years in Guanzhong, but his cultivation is still at the upper level of Mingqiao, and he has never entered the realm of enlightenment.He is rather warm-hearted, and he has talked with Yu Ci twice, and they are familiar.

The friendship between the two did not reach the point where a special visit was required.Yu Ci was somewhat puzzled, but still invited him in and welcomed him into the main hall.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the room, Taoist Xu bowed to the ground:

"Xu Song, a disciple of Wanling Sect, was ordered by the Sect Master to come to congratulate Mr.

Wanlingmen?

Yu Ci squinted his eyes and was in a daze for a while. A cute little girl image of an elf emerged from the lake of his heart and smiled at him. Only after that did he remember what the Wanlingmen was.

It's only been a few days, why do you feel that the matter on the other side of the Rift Valley is far away from him?

The state of mind finally shifted from the state of cultivation, Yu Ci took a look at Xu Song.I knew that Wanlingmen had an eyeliner in Zhixinguanbu, but I didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to expose it.Is it really just for congratulations?

Besides, what's the point?

"Mr. is about to be admitted into the Lichen Sect's gate wall. From then on, the road to longevity will be smooth. Isn't it worth celebrating?"

These words may not be too exaggerated, Yu Ci didn't bother to explain the joints to him, so he just let this topic go, after thinking about it, he said: "How is Xiao Jiu?"

Xu Song obviously came prepared, and immediately responded: "Miss Nine's soul has been injured, and she has not yet recovered, and she wakes up every now and then. The sect master wants to send the young lady to an old friend in the south to recuperate."

"Oh?"

Yu Ci was a little surprised, the situation of the little girl was so bad?At that time, Elder Yu Xuan and Monk Zheng Yan did not make this judgment.

Something was wrong with him, and, south?

As early as a few months ago, when the boy Ye Tu was "taught" by him, Yu Ci had a general understanding of the geographical concept of the practice world from him, and when he chatted with Baoguang for many days in Zhixinguan, he understood it. Also clearer.

There is a tradition of dividing the entire world into relative regions such as "east and west" or "north and south" in the practice world.

From a geographical point of view, this boundary is divided into north and south, and is bounded by the Duanjie Mountains, the Yunzhong Mountains, and the Cangjiang River.

Among them, the Broken Boundary Mountain Range is adjacent to the Tian Rift Valley, and it is also one of the landmarks that divide the eastern and western practice realms. It is the birthplace of the two major rivers in the world, the Cang River and the Liluo River; the Yunzhong Mountain Range is known as living in the world, and it is the practice resource of this world. The most abundant place; the Cangjiang River originates from the Duanjie Mountains, runs from west to east, and almost traverses the entire practice world. It gathers thousands of tributaries to form a river, and it flows to the east with great momentum. The river is thousands of miles wide, and finally flows into the East China Sea.

This is the most standard limit.

However, traditionally, or in the consciousness of monks in this world, the scope of the so-called "South" is actually much narrower.That should refer to the south of the Cang River, the east of the middle and lower reaches of the Luo River, that is, the southeast of the practice world.

Like the Cangjiang River, the Liluo River also originated from the Duanjie Mountains, and its tributary, the Bahe River, also flows outside the cliff city.As the second largest river in this world, it is much more tortuous than the Cangjiang River. Its main stream flows eastward, but it turns southward halfway, dividing the geographical south into two.

There are two worlds from the east and west banks of the Luo River.

On the west bank of the great river, there are the famous fierce lands of the Great Thunder Lake and the Liuman Mountains, where ghosts and monsters emerge endlessly; on the other side, there is the southeast water system known as the "Six Lakes and Three Rivers", where all kinds of crafts are flourishing, and there are many sects. It is the most prosperous place in this world.

The "south" that Xu Song mentioned undoubtedly refers to the southeast water system, and it is precisely because of this that Yu Ci felt strange.

You must know that the vastness of the practice world is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.For example, Yu Ci betrayed the Shuangxian Sect and wandered abroad for 12 years. It is not a short distance to travel, but in fact, he has been circling around the Duanjie Mountains; The surrounding area is almost the whole picture of the world in their minds.

According to Xu Song, it is a good idea to send Xiaojiu to the south for recuperation, but the distance from Cliff City to there is not measured in thousands or thousands of miles, at least it is a long journey of more than a million miles. It will take a year and a half, so what?

Did Xiao Jiu have any other plans to let Xiao Jiu leave Cliff City at this time?

In this regard, Xu Song explained a little more: "The monsters in the Tianrift Valley are in chaos. Although the immortals of the Lichen Sect and the Sunset Sect have suppressed it, there are still leaks in the end. Recently, the Cliff City has been repeatedly attacked Due to the disturbance, many people met with murderous hands. The sect master should have considered this point, and took advantage of the time when the 'Moving Mountain and Cloud Boat' was returning east, and asked his family members to temporarily go to the south to avoid danger."

Yu Ci said "Oh", is it Yishanyunzhou?

He had heard it from Ye Tu before, and it seemed that this "moving mountain and cloud boat" was a great magic weapon, belonging to a big business in the southeast, it was as big as a mountain, but it could fly at high speed in the sky, and it could carry more than ten thousand boats. People, from east to west, and then from west to east, go back and forth once every six months, serving monks who do not have the ability to fly long distances.

This is how Ye Tu flew from the distant East Sea to the Sky Rift Valley in this seat.

However, this reason is still not sufficient.

Yu Ci thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "How is the White Sun Mansion these days?"

But Xu Song gave him a thumbs up: "If you want to talk about the Bairi Mansion, you have to admire Mr. Yu's ability. Of the [-] stewards of the Bairi Mansion, three were killed by the husband; the fifty personal guards in the mansion almost Half of them were wiped out. These are the most elite combat forces in their mansion. Although Jin Huan wants to save face and keeps secrets about these things, how can this kind of thing be kept secret? No one in the precipice city knows Sir's prestige? Who doesn't know that Bai Ri Mansion has lost all face?"

Although the undercover agent of Wanlingmen is not good-looking, he flatters one after another, especially with admiration on his face, which is extremely sincere: "The most admirable thing is that Mr. , was able to escape from Tu Du's hands calmly, but it was the old monster who was seriously injured because of the cold wave of demons. ..."

"Go back to the house? Retreat?"

Yu Ci raised his hand to interrupt him, leaned forward slightly, stared at Xu Song, and said slowly, "You said, Tu Du returned home?"

Xu Song was stunned, but in this case, he could only nod his head.

Yu Ci was silent for a while, and when he spoke again, he only said: "Senior Brother Xu, is there anything else you need?"

Xu Song's visit this time was actually to follow the instructions in the door, to test out his attitude, to ask for friendship, how could he not know the fun at this time, hurriedly saluted and said goodbye, so far he didn't even sit in a chair, and didn't drink a sip of tea.

Seeing Xu Song walk out of the yard, Yu Ci pondered for a while, took out the bronze mirror of the gods, and opened the map of the gods at the same time.

The Zhixin Temple, and even the entire hill where the Taoist Temple is located, are all under the shroud of the Illuminating Map.The people's shadows coming and going in the inner buildings, halls, houses and gardens are under his control, but Yu Ci's mind is not here.

He stared at the picture of the gods, but what he thought of was the night before leaving the sky rift valley, the shadow in the picture that instantly expanded and devoured everything, and the fragmented sun soul streamer.

"Why is this situation becoming more and more incomprehensible?"

Yu Ci sat at the main seat in the main hall, surrounded by blue light and clouds outside the Illuminating Picture, and the light and shadow moved silently inside, and the hall was completely silent.

After a long time, Yu Ci suddenly broke into a smile: "Human curiosity is indeed useless. You are already going to climb a high mountain, and you can come back with just one message. Do you have to crawl under the feet of the 'giant' to seek death?"

Having figured this out, Yu Ci shook his head, closed his eyes, and slowly settled his thoughts.After an unknown amount of time, when the light in the hall was dimmed, he opened his eyes, and all the information he had just obtained sank to the bottom of the heart lake, piled up with those similar things, and there was no response.

Yu Ci re-entered the state and rhythm he was used to, and the transition between them was so easy. It has to be said that this was the result of the non-stop mental precipitation in the past ten days.

After a complete transformation of his thinking, he embedded his thoughts in the diagram of the gods.According to the impression in my mind, I searched for clues according to the picture, and soon found several key nodes.

He is still more interested in the "concentric circle" phenomenon in front of him.

The location where Xu Song was first sensed should be in the middle courtyard of the Taoist temple; later, when he recognized his scent, it was near the entrance of the west courtyard; as for the sound of footsteps, it was already outside the courtyard where he lived.

The later nodes are easy to talk about, after all, he has a keen sense of smell, which is different from ordinary people.But the first node is a bit surprising. It is very clearly shown on the map of the gods. It is two miles away, separated by a huge garden and several courtyards. No matter how sharp his six senses are, it is impossible to detect it. situation there.

"This is telepathy."

The mystery of the soul is indeed inconceivable.This is an unprecedented experience since he entered the realm of the gods.

Yu Ci had been using the map of the gods to reflect the surroundings before, and both the range and the clarity far surpassed this induction.However, in comparison, telepathy has an unspeakable mystery.

At this time, he thought of the change of mental image that naturally corresponds to the "concentric circle theory", and the circulation of the "twilight light" reflecting the "lake water". This is an induction, but it is not purely an induction, but with a This is a wonderful way to enrich oneself and practice diligently.

Sure enough, although the picture of the gods is good, the telepathy can't be neglected.Yu Ci remembered this point.

Yu Ci was about to try to enter the state of telepathy again, when someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard, but this time, it was an acquaintance.

Bao Guanghe is used to it, after knocking on the door, he pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing him standing in the yard, he said happily:

"Senior Brother Yu, what a great opportunity."
